Pros

* Smartest people around - great place to meet and work with some of the folks who develop the standards that make the Internet work for example. * Important and influential work- work improves government capability (many projects support the warfighter) * Environment that encourages you to define your own work. * Stability- little to no chance of being downsized, outsourced or replaced * Great benefits, fantastic 401 matching

Cons

* Lack of direction- if need a boss to tell you what needs to be done you may become frustrated * Hard to enter as a young engineer. Those with established careers will have a much easier time coming in.

Pros

Stable and dynamic work environment. Provides a colaborative work experience with plenty of opportunities to expand your professional horizons and learn new and varied skills. Good workers and good work are recognized and leveraged across the organization.

Cons

Too many managers, too few promotional opportunities. Heirarchical management structure is outdated and lends to eggagerated elitism and beurocracy. Hires and rehires are suspect, and nepotism and favoritism are a negative reality.
