Pros
- Stable company with stable product lines - Messaging is here to stay - Less work pressure
Cons
The company acquired a Messaging division in CA. Company is headquartered in Tampa, FL. The treatment meted out to CA employees is lukewarm at best. Since all the decisions happen at Tampa, your growth opportunities are extremely limited. Also the company shows extremely low interest in developing or encouraging new product lines or ideas. Hence some people are stuck to same jobs since past 20 years. Company claims certain attributes like lack of stock options to employees etc as an "East coast culture". Benefits are weak compared to a lot of bay area companies. HQ says they are not worried. A highly political environment.
