Broad availability of technology that are used on programs. Ability to move around between different programs and even LM Companies.

The promotion and salary band is not readily apparent to be tied to performance; Sr Management "claim" it is, but general feeling is that it is all subjective at end of day.

Good salary and good people. World reputation is strong. Multiple jobs in the company if you wish to move. Training is adequate.
