Pros

The people that work there (coworkers/non-managers) are generally very nice to work with. Work can be at times fun and challenging. There are usually opportunities to move around the company to do different type of work.

Cons

Expect below market value salary if you are not an engineer. Getting a promotion is darn near impossible these days. Yearly wage increases barely keep up with inflation unless you are an engineer. The management always mention that there are "challenges" which means less money for regular workers and fat bonuses for the higher ups because they can claim that they are saving the company money. At least in IT, you can look forward to 2 layoff rounds per year which is a morale killer.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
