Pros

Company is made up of very hardworking individual contributors.

Cons

Management is all about saving their own jobs. Recreating the dirction the company is heading every 6 months prevents any progress from being made. A true, long term (5 year) plan is needed.

Pros

The company is a very big business that spans across many different products so the options for career development are many and great, also the impact that you have is massive because the market extends all over the world

Cons

Because of the size of the products it can be difficult to be flexible regarding development methodologies and technologies, specially when the product has been released for many years

Pros

The benefits are good and the work is interesting. There's always free parking, coffee, beverages. The lunches are better than average and some of the parties are good.

Cons

Politics, backstabbing, the performance evaluation process is horrific. Expected overtime with no compensation. Transfer between teams is too difficult and too laden with politics. Too many meetings. Way too many meetings.
