Pros

SonicWall is a good company with a lot of decent, smart people and a passion to grow in a very competitive business. They provide a decent salary, a decent work environment, and the benefits are okay.

Cons

They are currently owned by a private equity firm that is driven by metrics and cares more about increasing market share and profits than in product quality and employee fairness. Hopefully they will grow up soon and be purchased by a technology firm that knows how to promote these exceptional products and will care about employee morale. I found the work-life balance to be very difficult, because of the amount of crap being pushed down from above.
