Pros

Good benefits especially if you are grandfathered to the pension. Good pay if you have stuck around long enough to bump your salary every year.

Cons

Top heavy. Too many levels of mangers. The people making the decisions are disconnected from the real world and the employees doing the work. This is why it takes years and years to implement an enterprise system and millions of dollars in cost overruns. They are slashing costs with no clue as to what the future impacts will be. Bogged down in bureaucracy and self inflicted time wasting processes.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
