Pros

Great benefits package that has improved over time. Corporate is committed to volunteerism and giving back to communities. Each year corporate sponsors a health challenge and gives prizes and rewards to those who participate.

Cons

Working with government partners is often leading stubborn mules. As such, NIC products (web sites, applications, and services) may be top notch and leading edge in the government sector, but trail in innovation in other industries. Opportunities for corporate advancement are limited unless one is willing to move to another state. Unless you are a project manager, career ladder is limited to 1-2 steps.

Pros

Growth opportunities, benefits, CEO encourages healthy lifestyle.

Cons

Repetitive projects; They're all pretty similar after awhile. Male dominated upper management. Each portal operates as an independent silo more similar to a fiefdom. Culture is afraid of telecommuting and flexible schedules.
