Pros

At first, I was excited to work for Marvell. But after only being here for 6 months, these are the only pros: -Gym -My colleagues (excluding direct management) -Plenty of parking -Medical benefits

Cons

-Micromanagement is the only kind of management -Out-of-date processes (or lack of processes) -Resistance to new ideas and tools -No focus on growth of the employee (all "promotions" based on who you know) -Upper management seems to be concerned with "hoarding" money instead of spending it on adding more staff, improving benefits, or providing sufficient licenses for tools -Absolutely no work/life balance (management constantly suggests to work weekends and 12-hour days) -No flexible hours (maybe just my particular group) -1 person does the workload of multiple people

As a satellite office, I feel unconnected to corporate culture, business strategy, & other activities going on at HQ.

Pros

(comments pertain to my satellite location and my particular engineering team) Flexible work hours Good working environment on site Convenient office location Enjoy my work and fellow team members Great technology in many areas; in others, consistently playing catch-up with industry leaders

Cons

(many of these problems are common to the high-tech industry in general) "Process" seems to be a dirty word at Marvell--reinvention is preferred Revolving door in many upper mgmt positions Management by politics and relationships is common; promotion in some (many?) teams seems to depend on ethnic similarity with immediate manager Too many great engineers with lousy people skills promoted to management positions Exec Mgmt team and Board reap financial benefits on the backs of employees (shorter option vesting periods) Micromanagement at the highest levels (does the CEO really need to review every resume and offer?) Believe too much the spin in their own press releases
