Pros
- Talented, creative and smart folks - My earlier company did not have a "professional development" plan; so I am getting used to the 40 hours of professional development offered to by REI to all of their employees; kind of like what Google does for its employees - The company has a heritage ..This was evident during the week long activities planned for celebrating REI's 25th anniversary - There are some really good ping pong players...We recently concluded a ping pong tournament and Friday bagels :-)
Cons
- I know projects are doing this in their own environment, but it would be nice to have a research lab, where latest technologies can be tried out...
