Pros

The actual company is good to its staff. Working on the airforce base is restricted to 6am to 6pm and weekdays only. So no "surprise" overtime.

Cons

Work was on an airforce base, and military and civilian gov workers can be abusive. Worse, if they're having a bad day, or skittish about defense budget cuts, your job can be "defunded" at the drop of a hat.
