Pros
Some of the younger engineers are easy to get along with, like in every office there are some to watch out for. The benefits package is quite good, so is the ability to get stock options upon employment. Pay wise, most times its required to work > 40 per week (at times > 50), its compensated at your salary, so that is a major plus for the pocket, especially if your're single. The company is two levels, manufacturing and hardware downstairs and programming upstairs. There is a cafeteria on site, so its not necessary to drive off for lunch. Parking is adequate as well.
Cons
Some cons include long hours and lack of communication between other programmers in the same group and even group management. Inter group communication is low, unless you find a friend in another group. Learning out side your group is also difficult. Long hours are required sometimes. Also there are no windows, so its a pretty grey and dismal building on the inside.

An OK Job, But Not a Place to Build a Career

Business Outlook
Pros
Flexible schedule, good health insurance with high employer contribution, consistent annual reviews with merit raises (cost-of-living - in the 3% range), off Fridays, generous severance packages.
Cons
Poor and constantly changing upper management, frequent layoffs, and low salaries compared to market. Little opportunity for advancement. HR is disconnected and has minimal interest in supporting employees. There is a general atmosphere of paranoia and unhappiness resulting from years of layoffs. The company demonstrates very little value for existing employees and has no problem getting rid of good employees who have years of company knowledge and experience just to save a few bucks.
