Pros

Good benefits, working here looks good on the resume. A mission that you can be proud of. Opportunity to move around.

Cons

Getting political. Management pays only lip-service to things. A lot of fear and uncertainty about things with the San Antonio, move, etc. Too much groupthink

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
