Rigid compensation structure, talented staff are overworked.
Excellent match on the 403b (double employee contribution with a flat 2.5% of annual pay). Medical and Health benefits are not as good as those at JHU in Baltimore, because JHUAPL negotiates its benefits separately from the rest of JHU. Status as a Non-Profit UARC results in less pay or bonuses compared to For-Profit Aerospace/Defense contractors.
Great benefits and salary, but office politics prevail. Benefits don't get any better, good salary, work with some of the smartest people on earth.
Salary increases are slower than commercial or tech.
