Pros

Jobs tend to be decently stable, lots of opportunities within the company if willing to change job titles, benefits are good compared to other similar companies - 10% match with instant vest, fully paid school, $5k/year towards pilot school, etc.

Cons

Tend to get silo'd into a certain role since the projects are so big, not much room for engineering design decisions unless high up the totem pole, base comp is poor compared to other big companies.

Pros

For context, I work on the defense side. The work is really fun and exciting with a lot of opportunities to grow. My team is close knit, supportive, and very passionate. Being a part of a union means paid overtime, which is really unusual for software.

Cons

Workload is insane. I often work weekends and have pulled 60-80 hour weeks many times. PTO is bare minimum. I have a lot of fun at work, but if I'm putting in startup-level effort, I should not be making well below market rate.
