Pros

Depending on group, teamwork can be great, along with people who really want you to succeed. Open office atmosphere (can also be a con) is cool also.

Cons

Location, pay, and often the ability to move around can be cons. Not all group are big on team work and lot of competitiveness that can be a bit much, probably due to year end review structure. Can be extremely political. Work life balance is also not great. Also not much training provided generally.

Pros

Great people who believe in a common mission. Strong leadership and support.

Cons

Budgets and decision making for technical programs are centralized at a high level with little to no consideration for how it affects individual programs and their unique needs. Heavy bureaucracy involved in setting up simple things.
