Pros

Benefits/retirement plan are second to none, excellent work/life balance, laidback work atmosphere, well-organized company structure, everyone is working towards a good cause.

Cons

No emphasis on opportunities for training/professional development/career advancement. Employees are rewarded more for tenure than performance; upper-level management overlooks young talent. Many departments are understaffed and salaries do not compensate for this.

Pros

Great coworkers to be around, great benefits, work-life balance was perfect before the middle management layoffs. Collaborating with teams is constant and helpful for the design process.

Cons

They cut the research team, relying on designs to take on that plus end-to-end products, which leaves to heavy work loads and late nights. Deadlines are rather quicker than usual since the reorg.
