I've been thinking about making a switch over to working for a defense contractor over start-up.
The pay seems to be better in lower cost of living area's (Washington DC metro vs. SF); job security better in BigCo like Mitre, SAIC and Booze and less competition from H1B visa holders that cannot obtain security clearance easily.
Get to work on cool technology with big scaling and parallel processing over web CRUD frameworks. Anyone has experience making the switch?
