Pros

Salary is mostly competitive. Stock performing adquately.

Cons

Complete lack of technical career path. No meritocracy and a completely unethical staffing process. You get ahead by knowing people from previous companies (typically Qcom dropouts) or you hire your relatives. Catastrophically bad management within SOC teams. Nobody can put a schedule together, hold people accountable, or deliver on time. Most of the group is just freeloading. New hires have nothing to do.
