Pros

Entreprenurial spirit in the company and in ownership of one's own job. Awesome products that are changing the world. Company maintains a growth mentality and has some high growth products, along with stable products and a huge manufacturing capacity. Lots of flexibility to move among jobs within the company. Many exempt jobs have multi-country or global exposure. Sales jobs literally around the world. Unique opportunity to contribute to a company and employees very genuine about and involved in philanthropy around the world. Consistent efforts around diversity, employee work/life balance, egalitarianism, and flexibility are differentiators. Compensation and benefits are competitive and varied. Recent efforts on morale and respect are sincere reactions to the past few difficult years. You work with high performing, smart people and there is a low tolerance for bureaucracy and low performers.

Cons

Bring your "A" game, it's a competitive environment and comes with some stress, pressure, and some morale issues. The company is strongly committed to it's business goals and accordingly there are often very aggressive projects and schedules. Cost cutting has created a sense of less job security at present, though that is moderating. Restructuring seems to have led to fewer opportunities in management jobs; it's a more horizontal structure. It's a cubicle work environment as seen on Conan O'Brian; now doing some pilots to change it. Stock prices hasn't moved much in years so almost every employee who has been at the company longer than 3 or 4 years has underwater stock options.

Pros

Flexible work culture and employee benefits. This role is suitable for individuals who are not very skilled in technical tasks and prefer to delegate responsibilities to others or vendors.

Cons

Zombie organization and people with no enthusiasm. Dog eats dog like culture. People working since 25-30 years have adamant mindset(please retire and make room for people who actually cares about doing good job). Use of old technology and methods even today. Some people are racist. People with zero technical knowledge and competency leading teams. You will see both dumb and highly intelligent people working in same team. No room or appreciation for innovation. Favors slavery over competency. Typical bureaucratic organization.
