Pros
Time off is relatively easy to take, lots of young, smart people working there
Cons
The biggest issue is management. Like others have said, middle management is not great. There is a tendency to promote people based on their ability to administer programs and achieve program goals. But that means your direct boss is likely to be a micro-manager who is good at task work, but not good at managing people. There seems to be an assumption on the part of senior management that if you are smart you can be a good manager and that's just not the case. These folks need training first. I would also echo the comment that the work can be monotonous.
