Pros

Smart, knowledgeable, honest, hardworking Engineers.

Cons

Management does not like to spend money but will spend just enough to stay competitive. Without promotion good luck getting more than a 3% raise per year; hardly enough to keep up with the rate of inflation or the expensiveness of the Bay Area. This is a company that tries to do more with less. Meaning more work for the employees with less resources and less pay.
