      Pros

      I get to work on cool and exciting products. The business travel is always first class (actually business class for flights overseas) and the hotels we stay at are top-notch.

      Cons

      Extremely long hours working in local office and also overseas in the manufacturing sites. Work'life balance is completely skewed. People don't get properly recognized for their contributions. Promotion from within has more to do with politics and less to do with how well you do your job.

      Pros

      We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

      Cons

      ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
