Hi, Thanks for your feedback. Really glad that you are enjoying the work here. We would definitely like to know more about the work life balance issue. Feel free to reach out to anyone in the management team or me directly to discuss this or any other ideas which could make us an even better place to work. Regards, Mathew Philip

Pros

Silicon Valley location, market leader in their space, though IBM breathes down their neck. Acquiring companies to match IBM's breadth. Better technology in core area, but high level of turnover in marketing results in less than anticipated sales - so good opportunity for top marketeers. In R&D, good growth opportunities if you are joining in Bangalore as more R&D work moves to Bangalore.

Cons

In R&D, limited development ability in the US. Bangalore facility growing by leaps and bounds. Career stagnation in the US for engineers. Entrenched senior management in R&D (been there for 10+ years) are control freaks. Senior engineers/architects there for 10+ years (since IPO) are control freaks and dead wood. No new ideas.
