Pros

- The benefits are terrific - Corporate management is with it, and is trying to modernize (socially, procedurally) the company (see cons)

Cons

- Middle management is entrenched in the 1950's (processes, values, expectations) and is stifling change - "Be creative" communications that start positive at the top corporate levels are changed to "obey" instructions by the time they percolate down through management layers

Pros

- benefits - pay is decent (including bonus) - work and life balance is great here - managers are more than willing to work with you - ability to travel

Cons

- The location is horrible, making for a terrible commute (unless you live right in Marlborough) - Promotions are generally given every 2 years; working harder than others doesn't guarantee a promotion - work is not exciting - management (especially in Marlborough), isn't competent.

Pros

If you work on a production program, chances are work can either be extremely demanding and offer plenty of technical challenges and midnight lab shifts, or boring you to death. The best type of work are usually found at CRAD (Customer-funded R & D) where one can achieve a balance of the 2.

Cons

There's plenty of career holes that one can fall into if one does their job too good at a boring field. In addition, there's plenty of technological inertia in the aerospace industry due to the inherent security needs.
