Pros

Benefits are decent. Hard to get fired (they will try to move you around unless you really mess up). Pay is fairly competitive. Huge corporation with many locations and resources. Plenty of really interesting projects being worked.

Cons

Can take a while to get spun-up on a new program. Being a huge corporation means some thing slip through the cracks and the focus isn't always on individual employees (sink or swim mentality - you have to reach out and grab your own opportunities a lot of the time). Promotions can be a little subjective (they rely mostly on who your manager is and how many years you've been with the company, not necessarily just performance).

Pros

Colleagues are friendly and supportive.

Cons

Joining the low ranks of this government contractor is akin to being lobotomized daily - however the thoughtless adherence to bureaucratic processes produced therefrom will likely increase your promotion potential!
