Pros

- Paying back to the community, generous donations to homeless, poor children - Different clubs to join - Free gym, locker/shower room - Mother's room - Great internal training

Cons

- Poor direction in management - lack of creative thinking, now it's all about making $$$ without definite plan - Laying off hundreds of employees without any bright plan and lying to the public - Killing and shipping all GREAT products to India which will only maintain the product not creating new ideas

Pros

compensation generally ranks on the good to high side, benefits are good.

Cons

people need to understand that there is no career advancement, the organization is too flat, with no director level or higher positions ever available. there are some truly mediocre people that have risen through the ranks that are completely unqualified to manage or set product strategy. its not unusual for someone to sit around for 10 years and get promoted suddenly, while younger, more capable team members are left unconsidered. most every other part of the company other than the shrink-wrapped creative suite are completely under-resourced and lack strategic direction. this would include mobile, and the enterprise business unit, which has not a clue what enterprise software is really like.
