Pros

* Relatively diverse for a tech company * Good work/life balance * Compensation and benefits are generally good * Core ADC market is steadily growing, despite the cloud

Cons

* Career prognosis depends on position in org chart. The higher up you are, the more secure you are. It's full on Game of Thrones here. * Teams operate independently as silos, without strong PM leadership * Poor technical planning. Specs are mostly absent or seriously deficient. * Poor learning culture * Actively outsourcing hundreds of jobs to India/Mexico
