Pros

Lot of interesting technologies to work with. Lots of opportunities for technical improvement and innovation. Relaxed culture that avoids micromanagement.

Cons

Long ramp up time in gaining knowledge of proprietary technology that is not reusable at other employers. Career growth seems to be biased towards time served. Particular teams are stuck doing routine work.

Pros

I have a great boss and my team functions well.

Cons

Yesterday, a new manager was allowed to "eliminate the position" of someone who had worked here for years and was really, really good at her job. Everyone who worked with her was shocked. She was on an extremely business critical project and doing a great job. Now one of my team members has to pick up the slack and do her regular job at the same time. What's interesting is that the job ithat was supposedly eliminated is posted as an open position now. Nice euphemism for firing someone who wasn't "one of the boys". This is not the first time this has happened and, unfortunately, it won't be the last. And management wonders why morale is so bad.
