Pros

* Get to ride on planes * Traffic is great since it's opposite of Dallas

Cons

My entire tenure there, every Software Engineer was paid 20% under national average for my field (though I've heard it's changed since the Harris merger). I was constantly put in for overtime. I would be brought onto a projects that were already over budget before I arrived, and I would be given goals of completing the projects under budget. I would get 90-95 scores on my yearly assessments and when salary adjustments came in, I would have my manager say, "Sorry. I wish it was more". Multiple managers have said this exact phrase. When questioned as to why it isn't more, they would shrug mostly. 80% of the Systems Engineers that I've met there, were grossly under-qualified for they're position. Their approach to fixing problems that were within their domain of responsibility was to blame Software Engineers for all problems. Software Engineers would have to go in and find the real problem and report back to the Systems Engineer. The Systems Engineer would then go to their manager and report that they in fact fixed the problem, taking complete credit. I've literally seen people take two bluray disks, onto which I've burned identical disk images, inspect the underside, and declare, "These disks are not burned correctly. I can see were the data stops. They stop at different places on each disk." I wish I was joking about this. Even explaining the concept of hashing the disk images did nothing to convince this person that the disks were identical.
