Pros

They care about the quality of their work and product as well as the quality of their employees.

Cons

HR tends to be rather like a sorority and they are amazingly nice to potential employees, but once you're hired they try to have as little contact with you as possible.

Pros

Great benefits, interesting work, products known the world over. One of the best work atmospheres I could imagine. Casual dress code. Employees are treated as competent adults and not children to be micromanaged. There are nice employee perks like getting a voucher for a turkey at thanksgiving, free tickets to worlds of fun in the summer, and a really nice winter formal event. Meeetings and training are generally kept to a minimum and are only held to the extent that they are really useful.

Cons

This doesn't happen as often in my department, but there is occasionally lots of overtime in some departments.
