Pros

Lot's of opportunity to work on different technologies. A whole bunch of room to improve existing systems and workflows. Never a dull moment, there is always a challenge to overcome. Employees really smart and capable people. Initial pay is good. Don't expect anything else, ever.

Cons

There is zero project management. There are sprint times where you work 60 hour weeks but expect to receive calls at 10pm for things that can wait. Hardware built on ancient technologies. Often causes many issues during implementation. Everybody seemingly can identify the problems that need to be solved. Any attempt to even start a discussion on how to fix the problem is met with stone walling. Continuous push to make things run faster and look better but trying new things is highly discouraged. Because of the number of technologies and cobbled together "solutions" it takes 3-6 months before you can understand the product. Management does not recognize the importance of existing employees. A common quote among employees is "If you want a raise, you have to give your notice." Management is cheap when providing for the staff but has no problem renovating the building continually.

Pros

Short commute and quiet because of empty engineering offices due to positions being constantly outsourced or eliminated.

Cons

No job security as the company struggles to complete projects on time and has a high rate of turnover due to poor management, pay and treatment of employees. (Lackluster reliability due to rushed designs that cannot be tested properly because funding isn't available to purchase the proper equipment.) Constant stacking of priorities so you will always struggle to keep your head above water, management does not understand that one person is not capable of doing every task by themselves and time needs to be given to complete what's currently in queue instead of bouncing around from task to task then complaining about lack of progress, there's no planning whatsoever so every decision is made in the moment without considering the bigger picture.
