Pros

Enjoyable place to work. You can make what you want of the job. Easy to approach other groups and help other parts of the organization and even move between groups.

Cons

Exec management hasn't changed in many years and tends to be more technical than appropriate for exec positions.

Pros

If you want a CEO that specializes is tanking the stock firing engineers, getting the company hijacked by private equity, and cheating employees out of their bonuses using magic company performance math, this is the company for you.

Cons

The company’s greatest “pros” are also its greatest “cons”
