I'll take that with a grain of salt from someone who worked there less than a year vice the 9 years I've been here. There is plenty of real engineering going on. I'm partially responsible for the "slowdowns" because not doing so would have resulted in failed testing with a flawed design and a waste of tax dollars. Politics, envy, and trips? Yeah OK - the real world ain't much different outside the gate because I started in petro-chem and did that for 4 years prior to working at NASA. I don't know what job you landed yourself in with LockMart (and then the absolute cluster that is Jacobs - I left that outfit too), but I can say you're speaking for yourself and definitely not me.
I hope your new job works out for you because you're a decent fellow. Good luck!
