Pros

Decent pay with stock benefits. Good Cafeteria. Some groups have really interesting technology. Mid-level management pretty solid. Good balance of work and life. Company seems really interested in retaining good talent (after seeing a bunch walk out). Seems to invest well in R&D for critical groups.

Cons

Not easy to transfer job functions (ie from group to group) It seems generally not to be encouraged. It started to have that "big company" feel to it. When you need help you have to traverse the management ladder. Sometimes high level management is short sighted on certain projects. Some less visible groups can go underfunded.

Management is straightforward and execution-focused, though the pace can be demanding. Great for those who thrive in a high-performance environment.

High pressure with occasional work-life balance challenges
