Pros

Good Office Space, Gym, Cafeteria facilities, Library, transport facility Good work life balance

Cons

I can comment only on the division I was working on WLAN and in Systems group. My experience is : This is my personal experience according to how I felt. It may not be true for everyone as it depends upon your ability to handle the situation 1): Employees think they are best in the world. Typical arrogance. To me no more than obnoxious kids. 2): Not open to inputs, suggestions. I found peoples ego get hurt. 3): Openly right wing staff and few managers. 4): If you hate the culture of "Ego, Fear and Politics" you should avoid 5): If you are technically very sound, this is not the place for you. 6): I was so fed up, I eventually put my papers. 7): If you resign, they will not allow you to serve notice period. Make your plan with new company accordingly. 8): Your stocks will be cancelled immediately, so make sure you vest all your shares before resigning. 9) To me bunch of losers who take help of politics and groupism to push any potential threat to their comfort zone 10) lower guys lick upper level guys to survive in the slowly sinking ship.

Pros

Good resources, nice office, smart people, very good health insurance(attractive if you're a family)

Cons

Wireless groups didn't have a clear direction and know what to do People is support teams(hardware, software, systems) are not well managed and given good work. A lot of positive energy loss due to terrible missmanagement
