Pros

Really good pay and benefits. Flexible work life balance. The senior / director levels really set the tone for a program. As a result, some programs are more fun, easier to handle the challenges then others.

Cons

Constant layoffs for last three years. System of layoff includes "bumping" which is laying off people who's jobs still exist because there is another "more qualified" person who can do the job . Management at Sunnyvale Space Systems is poor. Team work is poor. Laziness is rampant. Team dynamics are poor. Very insular culture.

Pros

Great leadership and good pay. Pay for performance, so if you work hard your pay will go up quickly.

Cons

Large corporation that does have its fair share of politics. You do have to be aware of how the politics work and understand that sometimes politics will prevail and you have to learn from it and move on.

Pros

Excellent pay for good performance and many benefits including insurance, retirement savings matching, etc. A challenging job environment and employee improvement structure designed to stretch your abilities.

Cons

Very regimented way of writing code for defense customers who are very picky about minor things. There are many problems with having a cash-strapped single customer for a product. Not the most enjoyable workplace environment (just a cube farm) with laptops given only to management positions (so they can work from their near-constant meetings).
