Pros

Good workplace, nice people in the Development division. They care about their colleagues.

Cons

Fixed structure, gap between design team (aka architecture) and devs. Very few colleagues are passionate about what they are doing, for most this is just a job. Hard to implement a change, even though all agree would be a very good idea.

Pros

Great history of innovation and cool products. Lots of interesting technology to work with and work on.

Cons

Upper management is disconnected from employees on purpose. They are in the process of moving all engineering overseas. Employees are a cost to be reduced, not an asset that should be valued.

Pros

Great people. Great product. Amazing challenges. Can be very stimulating place for people looking for a good challenge after a boring position.

Cons

Extraordinary pressure put on pro-video engineering. Senior management absolutely careless about employees life. You must be available 24hrs/7days a week in case something goes wrong with customer systems. Escalation process is totally broken, support staff needs to be restaffed and retrained and engineers must compensate in the mean time. Engineers are tired and tension can be felt.
