Pros

**Great work-life balance (9/80 Schedule - every other Friday off) **Large Corporation - plenty of employee discounts (movie tickets), perks & an on-site cafeteria (some what expensive, but convenient) **Opportunity to work with cutting-edge technology (radar, space, etc.), with some very talented people across functions

Cons

**Nepotism - you have to be very careful with whom you rub the wrong way (could be the spouse, uncle, or cousin of someone in your organizational hierarchy) **Career Advancement - the progression of your career can be an uphill battle unless you have an individual of influence backing you **Competitive Pay - pay is not always up to par compared to what other companies pay for a similar position, it seems that they may hide behind the glamour and glitz of being such a large, well-known corporation
