Pros

Great technical talent. Leads the market it participates in. Pay is ok. Management keeps an eye on the market and responds well.

Cons

Very little upward mobility. I've seen people in the same role for 5+ years. Major decisions can appear sudden and very little is communicated to people affected. Mostly engineers and very few people want to go from engineering to engineering management. As a result the managers are stretched thin.

Pros

Great IT support. Company created best environment for engineers to be productive. Great ESPP program. Company operates efficiently.

Cons

Top management needs better vision. The MPS fallout was completely due to a series of fatal mistakes by the top management from pursuing wrong customers to a horrible expensive acquisition.
