Pros

Most people has very specified job, working over-time is rare, but some challenging positions put in over 60 hours per week. Lots of training opportunities.

Cons

Feel like you can see how you retire in 30 years. Bureaucracy. Locations are mostly in remote "countryside" if you have a coastal mentality.

Pros

Interesting problems and good access to latest tools to do the job. Motivated coworkers

Cons

Upper management is absurdly disconnected from doing anything remotely valuable. They are useless. All vision and innovation comes from the lowest levels. We really don't need directors and above at this company - they take large salaries and promote the idiots instead of the innovators.
