Pros
BD is a great place to work if you want to put one foot in front of the other and collect a paycheck. The hours are great compared to every other place I've worked... usually just about 42-43 per week. If you like a steady income, good hours, a slow pace, low unemployment risk, and you like to take orders, this is your place.
Cons
If you need to express high levels of inventiveness and originality look elsewhere. Management favors analysis, tradition, dress codes, a sure thing, low risk, and careful steps. They don't like challenge, new unproven ideas, high energy, or individual decision making. Engineers from the design-side of consumer electronics companies struggle here. Management is very top-down and bureaucratic, and challenges to their commands are not well received. One thing that I noticed during my first week of employment was how eerily quite it is, to the point of being Stepford wives creepy. After about a month, I found out that a few of the more non-conservative engineers couldn't "take it anymore" and they spoke out. Within a fairly short period of time they were "let go". Also, I should say that there are a steady flow of engineers that leave the company right at their two year mark (so that they don't have to pay back relocation).
