Not competitive salary compared to other bay area companies.

Pros

Good work life balance. Workload is manageable most of the time except near the end of release.

Cons

Salary is not competitive. Bonus is always paid at 50% because of unsatisfactory company performance even though employee performance is above expectation.

Pros

Smart, creative people who support each other and genuinely care about what they do. Decent work/life balance, depending on your group and your deadlines.

Cons

Toxic, manipulative, entrenched managers in some key areas have created a culture of fear. Directive to move intellectual property development offshore for the sole reason of saving money. Very open concept offices in most locations stifle creativity.
