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.
