      Pros

      Tremendous people who care deeply about spaceflight. A wide variety of interesting work. Good benefits (pension! for now) and work/life balance. Collaborative and inclusive work environment.

      Cons

      At the mercy of congressional budget cycles. Large organization with a lot of bureaucracy, procurement processes are a nightmare. Wide variances in quality of different Divisions. Slow pace of progress. Difficult to be hired as a civil servant outside the co-op process.

      Pros

      At all levels, NASA attracts the best and the brightest so it truly deserves the recognition it receives as best place in government to work. And the missions and programs inspire everyone!

      Cons

      Very bureaucratic with lots of people involved in every decision.
