Pros

- Managers say all the right and politically correct things. - Hires out of school and gives you opportunity in positions you won't get elsewhere. - Benefits, bonuses, training, opportunity to experiment with technology. - Products are actually very good. HW is excellent.

Cons

- Feature factory where everyone makes a mess and nobody cleans up. - Projects/features often end with quarter and are not further maintained. - Projects are done for completion credit and promotion, not for quality. - Compliance with internal unwritten rules is the only way to get rewarded. - Official rules for rewards and promotions are impossible to achieve, giving managers all the say by defining lower acceptance criteria for people they like. - Messengers are tolerated, but never promoted. Bad news are a nuisance.
