Pros

Some very intelligent, savvy and motivated engineers with access to industry-leading technology. Ideally, an opportunity to make an impact on major, national initiatives.

Cons

Depending on what part of the organization within which you work, your experience may be miserable. No standards with regards to management and treatment of employees. Some people work hard, some people barely work at all -- and some people who do close to nothing - make large salaries, hold positions of high responsibility, and go completely unchallenged by the "system".

Pros

Good place to have work life balance. Reasonable pay, good benefits to include some paid time to do volunteer work. Never felt like I was too overworked. Also lots of ability to create your own projects

Cons

Quasi academic in the culture. Lots of alignment with the government so if that drives you crazy might not be such a great choice.
