Pros

Educational benefits are very good. The company will sponsor you to take classes at universities. The opportunities to work on very advanced projects are very good, too. If you get aggressive and work hard for them, the chances are great for you to accumulate some very good experiences.

Cons

The pay is mediocre. Definitely not a place where you can get yourself rich. Generally speaking, the defense industry is a stable place to be in. But there can still be layoffs happening, especially when the economy is in really bad shape, or when big projects are lost. Things are relatively slow compared to the commercial world.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
