Pros

Some useful experience. Getting experience after graduating from college.

Cons

Worse job I ever had. Other than getting experience after graduating from college, I see no future here. Supervisors, managers, and coworkers are belligerent (fueled by egotism), moody, and disrespectful. Some of the supervisors work half days, others offer no mentoring and encouragement. A few years ago, one of my coworkers quit within months of being hired for these reasons. He/she was extremely frustrated and couldn’t stomach the culture. Higher labor grades mock and denigrate employees below them for entertainment - having fun at someone else’s expense. Employees showing strong aptitudes in skill set A are forced to do tasks B, C, and D without the training needed to succeed. Hard-working employees are overworked and setup for failure. Supervisors are more concerned with practicing their golf swing in the hallway (virtual golf club in hand) while chewing gum with an open mouth or leaving early to go to a game, golf-course, etc. rather than taking the time to initiate and/or discuss the development and advancement of their reports. Layoffs every November (sometimes October too now). Employee surveys voiced many concerns time after time, but nothing changes. As a result of the disconnect between employees and supervisors/managers morale is low.

Pros

Challenging work, lots of flex-time if not fighting fires. Can easily coast if wanted to as hard work is not appreciated. Newer hires will pick up slack. Longevity and job stability - typically 20+ years is common employment length. As long as you do your time (>10 years), promotions will come, as talent is not a factor.

Cons

Covered in red-tape, old boys club. Always thinking of the present only and not the future. Upper management completely disconnected from the reality of the day to day. Engineering talent consumed with powerpoint engineering instead of provided with real resources to make a difference. No chance to grow or advance your career as the positions are held by many folks that just coast. Mid level management perpetuates the problems by spinning the story when issues arise to CYA.
