Pros

Benefits are good. Employees tend to stay for a long time so you get to learn from seasoned employees. Take advantage by asking questions.

Cons

It can be very slow. Don't expect "fast pace" like in tech or other industries. Change requires a lot of documentation and meetings to approve.

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
