Pros

Fun projects, interesting potential to use software for personal use. Free cookies, breakfasts, and misc other swag. Good nerdy environment, with some potential for growth, in the right career track. Great culture...if you drink the koolaid.

Cons

Management is abysmal. For being a place that "accelerates the pace of science and engineering", the whole place seems stuck in the 80s. Death by committee review is prominent.

The values are do the right thing and think long term - hard to get better than that. Work life balance is also quite good.

Software only, not much hardware. Limited ambition among coworkers.
