Pros

Busy place to work, but a great place to innovate.

Cons

Jen-sun tends to be one of the cheaper CEOs. While the salaries are quite good, some of the better benefits common in the industry are not available: 401(k) matching, subsidizes lunches, commuter shuttle.

Pros

Work life balance. Good benefits. Top of the notch technology. Competitive salaries. It is good to have all the above mentioned together.

Cons

I am not sure whether I can specifically say something here. It is a very good place to work as much as I know. Maybe salaries can be increased more on the review.

Business Outlook

Pros

Fast-paced work culture Leading edge technology Strongly support telecommuting. They don't care where you are as long as you get your work done. Can be an excellent place to learn the latest technology

Cons

Ultimately you're just a cog in the machinery. Very poor work-life balance. You're constantly expected to always be on the job - tethered to your blackberry. If you get pigeon-holed into a role, then it can be very difficult to move to a different role. Some managers have the attitude that they are throwing money at you - so just forget about professional growth and do whatever you're told. A lot of talented people tend to turn-off as a result of this attitude.
