Pros

There are some very interesting projects to work on. There's a good amount of pride you can take away from your work, knowing it will help save lives.

Cons

There is very little opportunity for advancement. Managers are generally people that have been with the company for too long - and lack knowledge of how to run a business. There are some industry-leading educational benefits, but don't expect to be promoted you after you get a Masters/PhD.

Pros

Work life Balance, Benefits package is very good compared to other companies I have worked at. Paid for my MBA

Cons

Lack of opportunities to move up and utilize my MBA. Seems like advancement is based on tenure and not ability.

Pros

Unbelievable benefits. Some of the most cutting edge products in the world. Relatively easy to transition to new jobs without having to transition to a new company.

Cons

Advancement opportunities are tough. Emphasis more on "earning your stripes" (aka years of service) rather than competence, abilities or importance. Culture isn't always the most inspiring and can be conducive to apathy. Many of the world-class perks are being removed.
