Pros

Friendly coworkers, good retirement benefits, good location.

Cons

If you're a entry level engineer, it may be confusing to establish where you want to grow. If you're a midlevel engineer and know what you want in your career, this is a great place to work (depending on your department of course).

Pros

Managers are very supportive and foster growth while challenging you. Semi flexible schedule - can come in early or stay late to meet required hours. Decent pay, tuition reimbursement, 401k matching, Mentorship opportunities

Cons

Leadership tends to get ahead of themselves with potential large contracts. Begin to invest a lot of time and money prior to contracts being awarded. Could be more clear on company goals and mission. Limited salary increase when changing roles.
