Pros

Good people to work with, decent support and compensation.

Cons

Bureaucracy is horrible, documentation hit and miss, and people are employed across the world so you're not guaranteed to work with them in the office.

Buyouts and layoffs

Pros

After being bought out by OT, not a lot changed. Mostly let the business unit do what had been working.

Cons

Very compartmentalized due to so many companies being bought out and left unintegrated. Raises approved by HR couldn't be given for years due to department budgets. Random layoffs one a year or so which sometimes affected entire offices regardless of business activities

Beware

Pros

Good people, generous leave, competitive pay.

Cons

Acquisition strategy changes focus constantly as new products must be integrated immediately so that they can be sold. Every acquisition results in hiring freeze and subsequent layoffs across the entire company no matter what level and/or years of service.
