Pros

They pay well and have great benefits. They are very large and that should give you opportunities if you are willing to move.

Cons

They are outsourcing most of their knowledge base to India. They don't give any regard to how much experience you bring to the table. They have been converting their company into a software managed services company and they are having a very tough year.

Swedish company that has no understanding of Silicon Valley

Pros

- good health benefits - new buildings going in - good local communications of events

Cons

- Everything is decided in Sweden, even when they know little/nothing about the technology - keep sending expats in to run things, who know nothing about Silicon Valley, or how to operate in SV. They act like like everything that is done is Sweden should work just fine elsewhere. - Absolutely no follow-through on strategy - it changes every 6-9 months
