Pros

Campus in Torrey Pines is really nice (gym, pool, volleyball/basketball courts) Generally laid back environment (good work-life balance) Employees are generally good but highly depends on where you work

Cons

Management tends not to be very good Little, if any, job training Poor job mobility (could be doing exact same job for 10+ years) Constant reorganization

Lots of structure, tools and resources to do the job.
