Pros

1) Benefits - degree work paid for, vacation time earned fairly good, 401K is great 2) Ability to travel 3) Volunteerism opportunities 4) Compensation in my area is pretty good

Cons

1) Sick time is terrible. They are offended if you need to take it - this comes from a person who rarely misses work 2) For the most part, management is bad. No pre-planning. It's all about putting out fires. Poor communicators. Little to inspire the masses.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great opportunities within the company for advancement. Employees are very proud of the work that they do and the products they create. Great place to start an engineering career. Great entry-level pay rates with decent benefits package. Plus you get to work on some of the most innovative, cutting edge projects on the planet.

Cons

It's sometimes easy to get lost within the company, since it is so large. Pay starts out very good, but raises are not competitive compared to the rest of the industry. Therefore the lack of raises do not keep experienced employees around for very long. Some of the processes are archaic.
