Pros

Good benefits and fair pay. Great people at many sites. Some sites are willing to adapt the latest technology, but many are not.

Cons

Poor customers. Big drive to make cheap products + unwillingness to fight customer requirements = bad products. Company bureaucracy can make change hard. Managers are powerless to fix compensation issues.

Pros

Management tries hard to do right by the employees, as long as it doesn't cost anything. Great place for junior and mid-range employees. The company is doing some really cool things. Good benefits. Competitive pay.(good, not great)

Cons

Giant aerospace company suffers at the whim of the government budgets. Practices age discrimination. Promotions are rare. Raises are hit and miss. If you happen to work for a bad manager your life will be miserable. Thankfully most managers are not bad. Benefits get cut every year.
