Pros

Decent salary, great benefits (all but stock incentives), company is innovative and seems to be committed to increasing market share, unfortunately they haven't achieved this in their mobile/wireless business.

Cons

Stock incentives have been declining for last 9 years, probably due to growth of company. A large number of their top engineers and managers/directors have been leaving for Qualcomm, no longer hiring "the best of the best" as they like to tell you in the interview. Schedule driven to the point of sacrificing efficiency and quality. Watch out for managment in Colorado office!

Pros

A lot of good technical people.

Cons

Good only if you're a old timer, especially your boss is your old pal. Performance review is a joke. If your boss is a newly promoted manager... no leverage. Stock and cash bonus were decided way up the chain. Job titles are jokes, too. So easy to be an Associate Technical Director..... for integrating a run-of-the mill IP ? Only way up is kiss ass.
