      Pros

      Good job if you are right out of school. They will give you the basics that you can use to find another job. It's managements fault, they will not try to keep you after they train you.

      Cons

      bad management. bad pay. No growth oppurtunities. This location is run by incompetent management. They make promises and do not keep them. You get a raise every year and a half which is 3-5%. They seem to change their whole set of employees every 6-12 months because everyone is pissed. So again, only take this job if you are really desparate or this is your first job out of school. Please consider moving on after 6 months.

      Great job now, but career doesn't look promising.

      Pros

      Exciting work in a high growth company. Good pay. Good entry level job. Work 40+ hours a week with very little travel.

      Cons

      Unrealistic schedules. Poor communication between management and employees. There's no real technical career path (even though one has been in the works for close to 2 years, it has yet to be put in place and we've been assured it won't affect salary). Engineering (SW/HW) positions are growing faster in India, but it's still mostly Product Acceptance. Very little exposure to customers. Our measly bonus plan was done away with last year not that it mattered much as it was only about $250.

      Great place to start your career. Tradeoffs - pay and extreme workload demands.

      Pros

      Personal growth and development. No shortage of opportunities to "stretch" yourself. The organization is so leanly staffed, that you get an opportunity to participate in everything.

      Cons

      It's a machine. Extremely short-term, financial focus. The work/life balance seem to only apply to select groups, for PR purposes. In reality, too much "life" focus will leave you behind, or out. Haven't seen less than 50 hrs/week in years. "pay at the 50% of market,"
