Secrecy is a win.
Pros: It's very rewarding to be at the center of where great products are made.  There's always challenging work to do.  There's always something new.  Getting bored is not allowed.  Given all the secrecy it's easy to focus on your own tasks.
Cons: It' can be a high pressure, high stress, we-need-this-today-or-never kind of gig at times.  Given all the secrecy there's a lot of duplication of effort.
