Pros

There are a few pros --play the game, play politics, and more (if you are good at it, you will be rewarded and promoted). Some smart engineers. Benefits ok.

Cons

- Too political - No recognition for people who work hard and sincerely. *Middle management is incompetent and inconsistent (bunch of *no* do gooders, honestly) - Polarized environment. -The company's core values, Integrity, Collegiality and Rationality --Gone with the wind. - Boring Software. Obsolete technologies and architecture. - Looking for directions ..absolutely nothing organic.
