You can be loyal to the company, but the company will never be loyal to you....
Pros
-Intelligent, creative and friendly people. -Good benefits, decent salary, and BEER HOUR! -Nice cafeteria, nice gym, nice campus. -Stock is higher than it has ever been. -Promising pipeline.
Cons
-Very political. It's all about who you know no matter how hard you work. Promotions and fun projects are given to the popular kids, just like in high school. -Low morale due to the various layoffs. They do small department layoffs and they are secretive about it. -Many managers aren't managing anything or anybody. There are some dead bodies that could easily be replaced with ambitious and excited new employees. -Positions are created out of nowhere to please certain individuals looking for a higher title/pay. -Lots of office gossip. -Work/Life Balance? Yeah right! Expect to work nights and weekends whether you are in the labs or in an office job.
