Pros

Plenty of opportunities to work on cutting edge systems and technology and with very intelligent people. Had excellent team mates and direct leadership.

Cons

Upper management played politics so much that it drove people away from the company. Similarly, the poor management and excuses lead to contracts being lost. Despite losing multiple contracts and lots of employees it was seen as a financial win for the company because they had delivered on time for one deliverable and received good grades on their pay. Pay and benefits is severely below average compared to competition within the industry. Promotions were non existent and overdue frequently. Promotions were on average 2-5% raises, but external was 30%. The "boys club" of management was very sexist and this played a factor in raises, promotions, and opportunities for career development. Retaliation was common and management was protected from official HR reports and violations.

Pros

9/80 and every 2nd Friday off, generous vacation time.

Cons

The company is 100+ years old and functions almost entirely on inertia. Senior Management is totally disconnected from the day to day, and it shows in the content of their "community" video meetings. They talk about diversity but have no interest in applying it. Most of the time they totally ignore the needs of their disabled employees.
