Pros

Work with smart people. Flexible work hours. Good salary, benefits. Good work-life balance. They supported me going back to school part time to further my education. Lots of interesting products to work on.

Cons

Easily get pigeon-holed into doing the same thing/hard to move around and expand to new areas. Mixed bag of managers - some good, some bad. Performance reviews are few and far between, and the end of the year results which determine bonus, salary, and promotions did not always reflect the feedback I had received from my managers throughout the year.

Pros

Get to work on interesting things. Benefits aren't bad. Free Soda. discounts at the company store.

Cons

Work-life balance, promotions are rare. Leadership (once in their position) doesn't change and management isn't held accountable for poor leadership. Managers aren't taught to lead people but to manage products and people are a secondary focus.
