Pros

Flexible hours (work your 40 flexibly - depends on team. You get paid. Air conditioning, Lights. Free lanyard. Good turn around job for a college grad - everyone who doesn't work here will be impressed that you work in such a 'prestigious' company.

Cons

Oh I couldn't possibly fit all the cons in here. Its a big business. No one cares about you or your ideas. Forget that thought that anything you learned in a degree program will matter to your job. A high school dropout with a few months of training could do your job, There is little to no engineering ever involved. Only when you need to engineer a way to do your actual job without using their broken tools and ancient processes. You will work hard but there will be some excuse why you dont get compensated for it. In fact chances are good you will either get furloughed or laid off. If you dont, you will see good people go and awful rectal-smoochers stay. The company wastes money on silly things like signs and propaganda and is constantly telling employees they are in "bad/tough times". Meanwhile executives get multi-million dollar bonuses even in the tough times. They don't even have the decency to accept this openly they will still insult you by pretending they are sacrificing as much as the little guy. This place slowly sucks your joy like a dementor. Other than that, it's probably pretty typical for an engineering company. Oh and forget any growth opportunity. There is none. When someone retires or leaves, they just have others pick up their work with no compensation or promotion.

Pros

Great teammates, great team leads who support and train well. Professional and structured work environment with freedom to develop individual talents. Lots of staff appreciation and camaraderie. Lot's of positions and opportunity for growth and promotion. Amazing learning experiences with opportunities to work, learn and interact with team members from diverse roles backgrounds and professions.

Cons

Starting salaries can skew lower, system redesigns are often flawed and redundant. Promotions are given however they require several before high salary and also they are often very political. Sometimes they would promote people who were neither proficient or knowledgeable but simply favored by a particular higher up.
