Pros

Relaxed work environment, intelligent co-workers, good pay, okay benefits, room for advancement if you're at the start of your career, good employee recognition, fair treatment, paid overtime for salaried employees (usually ... project dependent)

Cons

Feels like you're a tiny cog in a vast machine, when upper management decisions actually do have an impact on you it's usually a negative one, limited senior technical positions are open, less and less opportunity for employees to be creative and try new ideas

Pros

Good work life balance Projects matter for our war fighters Most co-workers are competent and dedicated More work than people, and moving to other engineering jobs is possible

Cons

Some numbskulls seem to get into senior positions. A "Consolidation" of buildings is underfunded, poorly planned, and drives chaos. The push to squeeze every nickel of efficiency means that there isn't always money for equipment or team building events (below the VP level).
