Pros

Amazing engineering talents; some very smart people, and some very advanced technologies, Very dedicated work force; would rise to the occasion to meet deadlines and to resolve critical issues, regardless of weekend, holidays, or what not. Most engineers are very nice and work together very well; I learn something new every day.

Cons

Very spread out in terms of geographic sites (Austin, Sunnyvale, Boston, Fort Collins, Orlando, Shanghai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, and Markham in Canada). Pretty much every SOC project involves at least 6 sites, so depending on your function, an employee may have design sync-up meetings early in the morning or late in the evening.

Pros

Very exciting work, so much so I work 20hours a day. No distractions from silly/fun events. Food is meh so I can focus on work. Coffee is also very mid, not good, not bad but mid.

Cons

Not enough work, I only work 20 hour a day, I still have 4 hours to sleep. And on the weekends, we still have 3 hour leisure time. We still accept People who gets hired expecting to work only a measly 80 hour week.
