Pros

Work in fairly small teams, interdisciplinary collaboration, hands on testing, occasional travel to support deliveries, several different programs/projects to work on, improving culture and work-life balance, 9/80 schedule (every other Friday off)

Cons

some programs have a very slow pace and are change averse, some programs are too fast and are exhaustive, some workers do not carry their weight or are unqualified, leadership is often overburdened which can stifle progress or lead to poor decision making.
