Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent pay and stock options, great name in the industry and good learning options

Cons

Too much of distribution in work between sites, too much of internal politics Top management lives for the sake of wall street and not for the technology nor the company - means, you should always live in the fear of downsizing Some of the important factors for an employee such as HR policies and local transportation are neglected
