Pros

Intellectually stimulating work environment, flexible hours, relaxed dress code, opportunity to work on cutting-edge space science and research and build systems that will be used on future space missions.

Cons

It's a government job and pays like a government job. Not the place to work if you need to support a family.

Pros

great work environment, great people, great projects. an excellent organization in general to work for and i highly reccomend it for scientists/engineers.

Cons

sometimes too much bureacratic mismanagement to complete a task...if there is more opportunity to try and do actions on you own, this would improve the work process.
