Pros

Most people are nice to work with.

Cons

Severely underpaid. Terrible build times. Terrible management of projects. Unreasonable deadlines. Expect to wait hours to compile code and run tests. Tools are often down. Tests often don't work. I don't think I learned much coding wise. Have to work in the office if working classified stuff. All my coworkers complained about being underpaid and not enjoying the work.
