Pros

Benefits are amazing. (Not as good as Google or Facebook, but better than nearly anyone else. Pay is good, can be great. Some of the best people I have ever worked with. Not necessarily the smartest, although very smart, but good humans. They care.

Cons

I just passed my 2 years, and my guidance is don’t trust what they tell you in the offer, especially if through Recruiter. And read your letter very, very closely and don’t assume it says what you think. Also, don’t count of “opportunities” regardless of what they say. I took the job, the lowest pay I’ve had in 10 years, on the basis of promises and opportunities, but given the market in semiconductors, it hasn’t worked out. However I’m still here because of the people the CEO and the culture. Given the external market, SF Bay Area, I don’t know how much longer I will wait.
