Pros

Technology is good - more energetic work seen at the engineering point. The interaction between various engineering teams is great. Lot of learning could be obtained from this. Lot of technical experience lies in there.

Cons

Senior Management is pathetic in the company. Many technical details are lost in the management mayhem. Being an underdog and trying to compete with a gorilla and without much money in the kitty screws the company big time. Product realization and analysis of the market place is very bad that it kills the enthusiasm of the engineers. There is no work life balance.

Pros

Fast paced technology in a Consumer electronics market. Work on products that end up in the stores and used by the general public. You can witness how markets get steered by global events and your company along with it.

Cons

Technically incompetent management. Bad planning and work division among employees. Lack of focus in projects.
