Pros

1 good pay, benefit 2 product has high market share

Cons

1 They focus on deadline not the design. They didn't design right in the beginning and keep missing deadline, which will bring lots of pressure to everyone. 2 They cannot or don't want to keep experienced people. When you want to ask a question, nobody know the answer and they just CC around the email. If a person get green card, he will leave the company right away in silicon valley. 3 Company politics are involved everywhere. Every 6 months, they will start organization restructuring. I didn't know who is the boss of my director, as this person keeps changing. 4 They outsource lots of jobs to India, where it turned out some project had failed.

Pros

Great design team. Learn a lot in the project. Great resources for self motivated technical improvement.

Cons

Big wave of talented engineers leaving in some critical departments. CEO lacks responsibility on the company development. CEO and CFO have been selling their stocks a lot every year.
