Pros

Great projects to work on. There is always an abundance of challenging problems that need to be solved. Depending on the group there is adequate time given to thinking about short/medium term research.

Cons

A lot of bureaucracy has been present recently. Also as a growing company engineers have a lot more challenges integrating with acquisitions.

Pros

Excellent new technology, great campus.

Cons

Can't seem to trust upper managements decisions and statements regarding job growth and longevity. Lots of little layoffs, 50 - 100 people, in various departments to reduce head count in Palo Alto.

Pros

The technology is great, people here are smart, and we get to work with some of the most enthusiastic customers in the world.

Cons

We're still adjusting to growth and operating as a world-class, global company. Infrastructure and management are light-years better than they were during the chaotic growth time.
