Pros

Great people to work with, very talented people that have a strong work ethic.

Cons

Same talented people don't get rewarded when HQ is in Bedford without a clue as to how much we keep this organization afloat. With every new acquisitions there is more integration work without a clear and precise outline as to the process. RSA creates great products but the marketing is horrible,thus there is not real passion for the "trench-workers" for their everyday battles. Also the new managers need to take a Management 101 course for your employees should never have to pay for a manager's lack of leadership skills.

Pros

This is a good company to work for because of the culture and people. The RSA Conference is always a blast if you get to go. The technology is pretty interesting. There are opportunities to grow

Cons

The downside to working at RSA is that the company really hasn't learned how to grow beyond a token factory into a software and services provider. It doesn't have a lot of the process and controls in place to manage a larger company. At time this makes day to day work frustrating.

Pros

There is nothing positive I can think of

Cons

It is a typical big company. There are meetings about meetings at this place. Everyone thinks they are doing a great job, but the company results don't show this. This company has not made much money for EMC since it paid $1.6 Billion dollars. There is a lot of strategy talk, but no one cares about execution. No one wants to tackle problems staring at your face, but they talk strategy. Lately, some key people who have worked there for many years have been shown the door - these were folks that did the real work. This is not a company you want to work for. It was a real torture working here. The management seems to be more interested in renaming business units (they recently renamed one of the business units - IAAG - go figure what it means to a customer - no one internally knew what the hell it meant either) - Well one of the VPs in charge thought it was very important to do this. This company has had one successful product - SecurID - nothing else has ever come out of this place.
