Pros

Good benefits available if you make it past the probationary period.

Cons

Was hired as a contract employee and told that my hours would be Monday-Friday 8:00 am - 4:30 pm. After leaving a job I enjoyed and accepting the position I was told that I would be required to work nights and weekends. During the interview process I asked on more than one occasion about the hours because I was in night school. I was assured that I would be Monday-Friday 8-4:30. Then weeks later I was told that I if I could not work the overtime/evening/weekend hours that I could find a new job. So I found a new job.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
