Pros

Good opportunities to work with leading edge technology. Work/Life balance has been a strong point, and strongly touted by the company. However, that has claim has been tarnished with more demands for UCOT - uncompensated overtime.

Cons

Work opportunities are extremely inconsistent year to year being heavily dependent on defense spending. Project teams, even within the same site, tend to be long-term silos making it difficult to get involved with other areas of the company. Raises are consistently below the inflation rate.

Pros

Great Benefits if transferring to full-time status. Extremely established leadership hierarchy. Many experienced engineers willing to help develop a newer engineers' skill set.

Cons

If you primarily enjoy being more hands-on environments smaller companies might be a better option. Not necessarily a con but becoming 'shoe-boxed' is much more likely at a larger organization.
