Pros

Great core product with decent compensation package.

Cons

A lot of junk engineers and very poor middle management who don't know what they are doing. A promotion is pretty much based only on those managers' subjective preferences not by objective performance review. Too many management layers at least. Communication is also really poor and one way.
