Pros

Great benefits! Very collaborative work environment.

Cons

There is a serious "lack of continuity" at Lenovo. Constant layoffs on a yearly basis. Frequent reorganizations within business units. Way too many "experienced workers" are being cut and their jobs are being off-shored to other countries for "cheaper labor" Constant budgeting problems No work/life balance for employees due to the ever increasing workloads. Unrealistic goals set by the executives. Numerous slips in project schedules due to a serious "lack of resources". It is completely "point-less" to fill out "Lenovo Listens" surveys because none of the employees' concerns are taken seriously by management. It is just a total waste of time. The cafeteria food is lousy and overpriced!! Too much of the "IBM culture" still exists at Lenovo. Not a good company for those seeking long-term employment.

Pros

One of the leaders in laptop design

Cons

Despite their claims of dual HQ the US does not operate autonomously. Most direction is heavily influenced by Senior Mgt in Beijing. They've done a poor job at retaining good talent. Layoffs occur frequently. If you're one who has bounced between, HP, Lenovo and Dell I'd recommend to make a career change. There's only so much share-shift you can do.

Pros

Competitive salary and historically better than industry bonus payouts. Great campus in Morrisville,

Cons

Company culture is very tough for many. More and more jobs are moving to China each year and most of the leadership has already. Work/life balance is tough (to non-existent) and concern for the employee well being is not apparent.
