Pros

1. Leadership position in many segments of its market 2. For many people, ability to work from home

Cons

1. Company is too top-heavy: lots of directors and managers with no reports; 2. Since people are too dispersed -- many key people working out of their home with only an occasional cameo appearance in the office -- communications are a challenge.

Pros

Among the best compensation in the technical software market. Some of the most intelligent, hard-working people you could ever work with.

Cons

A continuous lack of executive leadership since the mid 90's usually leads to a high volume of very talented people that leave "hating" the place. A "no rehire" policy that prohibits past employees from being rehired, even if they're qualified and they weren't fired for cause.
