Pros

Quality company with innovative products, market leader in machine vision technology. Likely company and the intellectual property will keep increasing in importance as AI vision starts to become prevalent.

Cons

Poor recycling program and break areas could have more than just coffee. Conference rooms could have better technology & features for more streamlined meetings.
