Pros

NASA is a place where the imagination can explore the universe. Lots of Technology, cool projects, and awesome video and photography.

Cons

A large portion of older employees are retired in place. Change is usually not welcomed. It is a true government operation slow and inefficient. Does not play well with others.

Pros

Relaxed environment, not pressure to bring in funding, interesting projects. Salary is not bad, and you get some really good benefits. Plus, you have many vacation days and many holidays.

Cons

People are old, not very ambitious, there is a lot of bureaucracy because you work for the government, and you will never get rich here. You will not be pushed, which is a bad thing if you are young and ambitious.
