Pays well. Good computing resources, lots of analysis tools, IEEE corporate wide subscription

Cons

A ton of competition. Hard to get noticed. Policy is flowed through many layers of management. Annual goals weighted almost exclusively on financial performance, which is hard for an engineer to build a case for.
