Pros

your pros are based predominantly on your manager. if they see value in you, you get trained in more stuff and MAYBE it leads to something more than a comfortable work space. and depending on what program you work you might like what you do.

Cons

There is always a probability your raise will be laughable. 3% is the max for the year. Company values new people more than veterans so your raise will never reach what new people get walking in with less experience. if your lead doesn't like you or see your value they won't let you grow. most managers will laugh at any ideas for improvment (not all) even if everyone else agrees. no bonuses most managers don't want to see you develop. when they are busy you will work as long as they can but when they are slow they barely offer training or cross training. traing courses expect you already have done the task they just certify you for it here. vs actual training course. in some spaces very toxic workspace emotionally (specifically when work load is weak)

Pros

Missions are impactful to the world Top talent in specialized fields Wonderful people Respectful environment

Cons

Processes and policies are not robust enough to support the large growth / merger, which leaves everyone operating in silos and interpreting things in their own ways Shared service model is not structured properly Not enough critical thinking around how budgets should be allocated for tools, capital, and salaries Higher level leaders are too in the weeds and not working on the harder strategic aspects Businesses are not aligned with common products to gain best synergies as all businesses fight to defend $s not what actually makes sense for the company (radios sharing same suppliers are in completely different segments; CCAs are built across 10+ different factories managed by different management teams instead of a couple of large COEs) All leaders felt unempowered due to lack of ownership of budgets. Budgets were set but then adjusted at further levels without any additional discussion of new targets and how to achieve. Then budgets would be reallocated a few months into year if you weren't demonstrating that you truly need it. This drove teams to spend heavy up front and not make the smartest decisions at times
