Pros
Short Commute and that is all.
Cons
So much unprofessional managers, favoritism, and lots of unhappy people. Why do they stay, unfortunately long time employees are stuck with a skill set that cannot make them competitive outside of Fremont. They still are mostly paper-based even if they have electronic system that they did not fully validate. They are stuck with rigid old processes. No innovation and their quality systems are a joke, no value added metrics, overly complicated investigations, etc. There is no problem solving so lots of time and money are wasted. The pay is not competitive for the Bay Area, and the turnover is large because there are a lot of frustration with compliance issues that reoccur because no one pays attention to solutions. STAY FAR AWAY.
