Pros

MDA Montreal has got satellite design down to a science. Overall, a great place to learn about the different aspects of the industry.

Cons

The cost of equipment failure looms large, making it necessary to improve the products/procedures in very small increments. There is a recipe and you are encouraged to master it, not improve upon it. The product is extremely complex, requiring job descriptions to be quite narrow to ensure the person is capable of focusing on developing the necessary expertise.
