Pros

A good "name" to have on your resume, if you leave out the detail that Danaher owns the company. Some good technology to work with and the worker-bee level is generally competent, though not outstanding. Nice location and a pleasant campus.

Cons

Danaher, combined with highly-manipulative senior exeuctives, are ruining the place. Spreadsheets and platitudes rule while innovation is crushed. The feeling in the company is one of having lost the war, badly. Morale is cancerous. Not conducive to progress or progessive thinking.

Pros

Extremely smart engineers in Oregon, generally has a decent culture, invincible brand name

Cons

Company profit isn't being reinvested into itself, parent company controls all profit. This can be seen in lack of NPIs.
