Pros

There are incredibly talented people that work day and night for this company, bar none the best and brightest in the world. I've learned so much about how things work in a big corporate office setting that I'll take with me throughout my career. Also, the intramural sports leagues seem like fun, and the on-site gym is kept very well!

Cons

Not much really, but I would say that I as well as many other former employees felt the squeeze of the new CEO. The cost cutting was absolutely hurting our morale, not just in the department but the whole company. Then the eventual rounds of annual layoffs occured. Maybe it's more fun to work in the consumer products side than the workstation/professional side.

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.
