Pros

A lot of great people, interesting projects, and a clear meaningful contribution to society.

Cons

Too many projects do not learn from the previous projects and make all the same mistakes again. Plan up front instead of trying to retrofit after the fact. Craftsmanship is preached, but not actually supported. Too many good people let go or leaving since senior management changed, and it has gotten to the point where quality people are leery of working for them due to instability.

Decent pay. Not much else.

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
