Pros
fun and social work environment, very easy going - reminds me of 'studio' in college. very talented team members to work with and learn from wide variety of projects great benefits (401k, stock, and healthcare)
Cons
typical corporate company issues - low risk, slow/hard to get things approved, etc. (very hard to get travel approved) very engineering minded/perspective company (not always bad, but can be frustrating) While initial salary is not bad, lack of bonuses and/or salary raises to match cost of living inflation. Only possible raise comes from promotion/title change. Lack of positions past senior designer. There are possible leadership roles past senior, but nothing past senior for non management focused designers, which means lack of promotions... ID currently reports to/under engineering (ME) which can be frustrating. Lack of "higher up" influential design leader /director.
