Pros

Great work-life balance.

Intelligent coworkers, lots of learning opportunities for entry-level engineers.

Cons

Classic corporate meeting culture: too many meetings that could be emails.

Mediocre pay.

Many nontransferable skills for software developers.

Does not really feel like "cutting edge" work.

Generally conservative company that is resistant to change, lags behind industry.

Advice to Management

Would love to see drastic changes to improve employee retention. It feels like a sinking ship that many are jumping from.

Given that people don't do that much work to begin with, it would be interesting to try revising meeting culture and a 4-day work week.
