Pros

Biggest collection of smart people I've ever seen. Health benefits are very good. Company culture is awesome - beer fridays (with company supplied beer!). They train you with some very marketable skills.

Cons

Lower levels of the support organization are habitually understaffed and overworked. Once you get trained with an additional skillset, the job stress/workload goes from 'wow this is a great job' to 'wow, let me polish my resume'.

Pros

Interesting technology domain part of culture is to be open to making non-trivial changes to the product(s), when makes sense of course, i.e. not conservative engineering environment. Smart engineers, helping each other.

Cons

This is very engineering focused company, with very good engineers. Make sure externally hired managers do not degrade the culture and qualities outlined in Pros. Internal infrastructure could be more efficient.
