Pros

- there can be opportunities for innovation - pay scale is very good - benefits are very good - there is flexibility in work locations - some employees work from remote offices

Cons

- innovation doesn't seem to get the same support it used to - ideas come from the top down - like many large hi-tech firms legacy products are being offshored to India and China creating a nervous atmosphere in North America - majority ownership are financial instiitutions - and that seems to be who is running the company
