Pros

1. Excellent peers 2. R&D folks are some of the most talented people in the industry 3. I had sufficient opportunity to lear 4. As you go higher the perks and compensations are pretty impressive

Cons

1. Poor upper management 2. Sales folk "own" and drive the company (as opposed to the R&D guys) 3. Lots of internal politics (mostly as a result of (2)). Though it IS possible to avoid it, but hard.

Very good company and flexible work hours and trusts employee. Never pushes employee and gives full freedom and respect for employee

Company should implement 360 degree feed back system. Right now Managers are considered gods and their salary always higher than a person with higher experience in technical ladder
