Pros

Stable company Many divisions, so there are ample opportunities to advance within the company or try something new. Company tries to stay current with technology, which is necessary in order to keep engineers interested.

Cons

Projects are contract based meaning that you don't do anything without guidance from the customer. This can lead to frustration when you cannot improve upon a product unless guided by the customer. Huge employee count, so advancement is a slow process.

Pros

Good work life balance Projects matter for our war fighters Most co-workers are competent and dedicated More work than people, and moving to other engineering jobs is possible

Cons

Some numbskulls seem to get into senior positions. A "Consolidation" of buildings is underfunded, poorly planned, and drives chaos. The push to squeeze every nickel of efficiency means that there isn't always money for equipment or team building events (below the VP level).
