Cons
Some processes are tedious.
My team work in a separate classified building, as I am waiting for my clearance to be processed sometimes it can be lonely and hard to self-motivate as I am always working on tasks alone.
Do to the need to know basis of most project content, information and knowledge sharing can be low.
Working on old and out dated technologies that won't help you down the track.
The need to know basis on which knowledge is shared between projects.
