Pros

Good Full-time benefits and the people are nice and easy-going

Cons

The position, "engineer" ,is degrading here. The training is endless but you wouldn't really grow as an engineer. You're actually a monkey doing the same repetitive tests for clients and the motivation is dry. There is a lot of mis-communication between what goes on between the upstairs business politics and the downstairs labs.

Pros

The work is interesting. Some decent travel is available if desired. If you work hard and set yourself apart from others you can earn a promotion.

Cons

It’s all about who you know. All responsibilities fall on Engineering. Engineering does much more than “engineer” and spend too much time on stuff that admin staff “should be able” to do. When something needs to change the usual solution is to have Engineers be responsible for it because many non-engineers can’t handle mediocre tasks.
