Pros

Struggling to think of any . . . Oh yes I could wear my own clothes

Cons

Very poor management from the top to executive level and down Random chaotic environment Advancement through who you know rather that what you know. Managed by cronnies. HR department is totally ineffective Snails pace product development while the rest of the world moves on quickly Very little real innovation or creative engineering ends up in market Jam tomorrow

Pros

- If your team/manager is great, that makes a huge difference - opportunity to take on huge responsibilities early in your career - camaraderie among coworkers - Some of the benefits are okay (health insurance, parental leave)

Cons

- Poor leadership with no real direction, at both the national and global level - Constant layoffs - Pay is not market rate (and they let you know that) - Everything is outsourced (designs, customer service, finance, etc.) - Dyson has become a market chaser rather than a market leader - Inflexible in-office policy (5 days, little exception) - Bonuses haven’t been paid in full in years Company is in a tail spin freefall. Jump ship while you can.
