Pros

Good people as peers Base compensation is good as bonusses are infrequent Austin is a nice place to live Interesting technlogogies, especially for hardware designers

Cons

Bonusses are infrequent Poor execution Not much training or other support infrastructure Management is mostly good old boy silos Lots of management spin about things getting better soon Very little opportunity for job rotations Much business/market risk due to the competative environment

Pros

The pay is really nice. 3/4 managers I've had actually seem to care! Nice location for most folks.

Cons

They will keep you on contract until they literally cannot anymore. Getting hired on full-time is like pulling teeth.
