Pros

If you understand the cyclical nature of their work, you can make some money on the stock options. If you are a physicist, this can be a great company to work for.

Cons

Arrogance of senior management is huge. Only valued skills are physics and finance. No concern for employees, layoffs are a common event. Death Marches are encouraged, no concern for the bodies left behind. When things are not going well, senior management just gets out their whips.
