Pros

I felt that management was very dynamic, not stuck in their own old ways. They were innovative and looking to the future. They were interested in what their emloyees wanted from their careers and to getting them into new areas as well.

Cons

Sometimes management jumped a little too quickly into new innovations that were not "winners". This caused a lot of shifting around. Our group however was pretty insular, so my experience may have been unique. The company is very siloed and you don't have much insight into the rest of the groups without doing your own networking.

Pros

The talent pool working at RSA is of good overall quality. Opportunities for professional development abound. The budget for degree programs and technical courses was very helpful. In addition, some technical courses are offered on-site. A decent cafeteria and an on-site gym further reflect the company's focus on balanced living. In general, the company still feels "small" enough that one can have candid discussions with decision makers (if one seeks them out) to better understand the company as a whole.

Cons

Some processes are slow and inter-departmental communication is especially not smooth. Internal transfers could be messy given the integration of HR with EMC. Middle management structure is frequently in flux, so some groups may be disorganized for periods of time.
