      For a short term it's fine!

      Pros

      Nice colleagues and beautiful landscape. May give opportunities OUT OF the current department. It's an experience.

      Cons

      Too many admin tasks. Advices for job/tasks-improvement asked to employees, but not currently taking place. Zero carreer perspectives inside the department: the employee has to apply to other departments to have an increase in salary or be "upgraded". Good profiles covering the wrong positions.

      Poor Employment Ethics

      Pros

      Company has good benefits and offers stock options, if your good at negotiating it into your offer. Company stock is growing, so very beneficial for people granted stock options.

      Cons

      Company probably facing an exit strategy of a possible take over. Also several court cases in Santa Clara, CA filed against company for wrongful termination. Which concurs with this review and the bad management described in critiques given below. Almost everyone in 2013 given 1%-2% bonus, thus why I left there for better opportunities elsewhere.

      Pros

      Potential to be in a target for a take-over

      Cons

      Senior and middle managers are at best unprofessional and not supportive.
