[quote=Anonymous]NP also employed at a defense contractor. PP gives good advice - make sure they have a contract lined up to staff you on and get specifics about the duration of the contract. I'd be very hesitant to work for a defense contractor right now. It's not a great environment. Plus with possible sequestration some clients are edgy/not thrilled with contractors who are perceived to make more money or be in a more secure position (often not the case). Per the question about raises, at my company not great. Past two years most people got 1.5-3%. Though I will say that with all the concerns about working for a defense contractor and so many people planning their exit strategies, if you can make it through the next couple of years you'll likely be well-positioned when things turn around. Good luck![/quote]
