Pros

Very bright colleagues, dedication to mission rather than personal or corporate profit, work life balance, important problems with opportunity to help solve them.

Cons

Too self-satisfied, too many people have inflated view of our stature and reputation in 2011 vs. 1985, resistance to real change at middle level of management.

Pros

Ability to work with some great, motivated, intellectually honest scientists and engineers.

Cons

Difficult to move within the company. Top heavy management. Focus on revenue generation over quality in too many groups, becoming part of culture.
