Pros

There is a lot of support for knowledge growth and training is readily available. The team environment is also pretty great

Cons

Its a huge organization and sometimes you can get lost within it. You have to be aware of this going in and always keep your long term career goals in check.

Pros

Good place to gain experience. There are lots of good researchers there. Most of them graduated from top schools in China. They are nice to work and have the ability to mentor interns.

Cons

Office is too far from the city area. Interns are not given too much freedom of what to do. Almost development of different demos.

Pros

Stable Exellent Reputation, excellent product innovation. Above average benefits, market pay (which has seen hits recenty now that company has worry about employees leaving)

Cons

Lots of pressure.... there used to be a sensible balance to quotas, forecasting and attainment but that is certainly micro managed today. With continuous cuts to field resources it is extremely hard to keep all the wheels on the bus.
