Pros

Some of the best minds in the world who are there not for money or recognition, but for simply working. The opportunity to work at pretty much any field that you want exists, especially if you have the passion for it.

Cons

Some ego management is required. Also some bureaucracy. But not that much more than what I have seen elsewhere.

Pros

Commitment to technical excellence, strong fellow employees many of who are committed to one another, good technical reputation in the Federal system

Cons

Adminstratively mired in the past. In 2009 the internal cost-management system was the same that had existed in the early 90s and relied on spreadsheet manipulation. There's the Battelle-way or the highway mentality. The not-for-profit mentality leads some not care when administrative stuff gets done.

Pros

Some managers are great and flexible. Stable company and great pay.

Cons

Unfair management. Need change in management and be more professional. Management is do as I say and not as I do. Not a clear career path.
