      Pros

      One-of-a-kind systems to work on. A "good" project can be technically fulfilling. Get your early-career cred here, then move on to a better company that will appreciate you.

      Cons

      If you're not management or task-leadership by 35, GTFO. There's a definite "Eloi vs Morlocks" culture here. Best employer in the world for that favored 20%. The other 80% will languish. Wait too long and you'll be unemployable anywhere else.

      Pros

      Interesting work, good colleagues, company is supportive and there is good work/life balance. There are leadership opportunities for those to want them. Pay is competitive.

      Cons

      Raises haven't kept up with inflation. It's hard to break in as a new employee. There is a lot of change, mostly for the better but a lot of change.
