Pros

It's nice to be a part of something with meaning; helping defend our freedom. Good people and lots of interesting things to learn

Cons

Many members of management got the job because they were there long enough, not because they deserved it. There's also a lot of small thinking for a big company.

Pros

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Cons

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
