Pros

Insurance benefits, 9/80 schedule were the pros

Cons

Favoritism, mundane work, lack of direction, abuse of power, low pay, little to no opportunity to be promoted (if you are, it takes a long time or being "in" with the right people)

Pros

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Cons

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
