Pros

The company is established, so it offers great job security. They do a great job trying to make sure employees as satisfied and that employees are in a position that they want to be in.

Cons

The obvious cons are that they have a difficult time competing with many of the "attractive" silicon valley firms in terms of benefits, and workplace environment. It's a combination of experienced engineers and younger "millennial" engineers. Thus, the workplace is a very corporate environment

Pros

Good retirement, nothing other than that.

Cons

Innovation is frowned upon. Meetings are held for everything with no solutions being made. Making solutions on your own without holding useless meetings where everyone and their dog join, then the solution is instantly deemed horrible. Solution to problems are not allowed to be brought up in meetings looking for solutions. Unrealistic goals set by management. Employees are spread across the entire country...only way to talk to someone is through skype. Skype meetings are used for everything, people in adjacent cubes even join the same skype call... You can count on one hand the number of good engineers that work in a project employing over 100 people... The solution to everything is more man power and meetings. You have 3 places you need to log your work time... No free coffee.

Even though I am a salary employee and I'm basically hourly due to it being a defense company. Have to log in hours for correct pay stubs
