Pros

Upward mobility, being to change assignments easily and the opportunity to travel

Cons

You may have to push your own self to learn new technology that may be used outside of the company because they also use a lot of tools they developed themselves

Pros

Excellent work/life balance, supportive management, great benefits, good culture, many opportunities to grow w/in the company and obtain varied experience in multiple domains. Senior management had good mix of business and engineering expertise.

Cons

When I worked there, some organizations had too many (unnecessary) levels of management, but I've heard that this has improved over the last few years.

Pros

I have had a great time on many different types of very technical projects. DOD related intelligence systems, civilian space systems (Mars, Jupiter, Moon, and Earth projects), and several independent R&D projects. Highly ethical and diversified employees to work with.

Cons

Benefits have been eroding over the years (new employees don't get pensions and I don't think 401k's are quite as good as the old setups). The company has a strong "affordability" movement going on right now that is resulting in a great many layoffs.
