Pros

Interesting technology. You get a chance to work on interesting technology and projects (if you manage to get enough budget)

Cons

Politics, Arrogant Management, Incompetence erverywhere. Management is cost reducing this place to death. For about 5 years Xilinx has been in a state of permanent reorganization. Just after last reorg has been "completed" next exec. leaves requiring another round of reorgs. As a result we're exactly where we were 5 years ago. Sub-par salaries for employees, at the same time execs get annual 20%+ increases plus huge bonuses and stock grants.
