      Pros

      Flexible schedule, decent pay and benefits and nice HQ buildings, which includes on-site cafeteria and gym....

      Cons

      Poor management style, hard to get promotion unless you are good at playing politics. A lot of "ready to retired" employees so they are not willing to change or implement new process. Work load is not distributed fairly so some groups have no down time, but some have too much down time.

      A decent company to work for

      Pros

      The pay is competitive and the benefits are decent, but what makes the company good to work for is its employees. The company is good at hiring many of the most talented people in the industry. Everyone is very capable. It's a pleasure to be surrounded by great peers. There are also plenty of learning opportunities.

      Cons

      Time off for new hires can be a problem due to the bi-annual mandatory shutdowns (Xmas and week of July 4th). The shutdowns are needed to give everyone a break. Staffing is continually paper thin and meeting schedules can be very challenging (Brocade is a schedule-driven company). Other than on-the-job training, taking advantage of the learning opportunities can also be a challenge, as there isn't a lot of free time for it. Promotion opportunities appear to be empty promises unless you are in a very visible position.
