Pros

Well-defined development lifecycle and clear program structure. Exposure to complex, mission-critical embedded systems and cross-functional integration work. Opportunities to collaborate across hardware, firmware, test, and production teams. Strong emphasis on documentation, validation rigor, and engineering discipline.

Cons

Large organization structure can slow decision-making and reduce agility. Process-heavy environment may limit experimentation compared to startups. Role scope can sometimes be narrowly defined within specific program boundaries.
