Working for the Government (Argonne National Lab)
Software Engineer in Downers Grove:
Pros: I met and worked with some very brilliant people and had the opportunity to learn and grow in my profession. Not only did I work with people that I was hired for but I had the opportunity to work in different departments of science. The experience was great.
I was hired in for National security work but ended up picking up projects for optimizing Rivers and Dams.
