Pros

Good 401k and CAP if you are lucky enough to get hired under the good ledger. Salary is competitive with other companies. Three weeks vacation plus two weeks of floating holiday, again if on the good ledgers. Good work life balance

Cons

Horrible Health plan, not much attention give to new hires. A lot of jealousy exist since many people have effectively pigeonholed themselves and are constantly on edge about being replace. Company does not care about there employees it seems, there one an only goal is to raise the stock price and whatever will do that, they will do.

Pros

It was relatively easy to land a job here after college. The work is interesting and the company really works to give you the opportunity to advance. They also promote the matrix business model and they encourage moving between programs, even though the functional managers don't feel the same way.

Cons

The pay could be higher, but considering that I was able to get this job rather easily, I can't complain.

Pros

Very stable work environment. For better or worse you don't have to worry about going anywhere.

Cons

Coworkers lack talent and dedication, Management hires anyone with a decent GPA from college, no technical skill test! Pay is far below what you can get in commercial software companies. Not a place to be if you're a hard worker.
