Pros

Good for the people who can enjoy being part of internal politics.

Cons

Many Cons.. Employees are completely isolated from the management.. Local management treats employees like slaves. Intimidating and yelling yet employees is very common..

Pros

It was a pleasure and best experience working with a brilliant group of people, working on leading edge projects. We had a strong team and was able to accomplish a lot even with having a small group and limited resources even having the leadership giving limited funding.

Cons

Upper management is not knowledgeable with the technology and market of the company they acquire, Apparently every acquired company are filled with leadership people personally close to Semtech's head even if their not experts on that technology space. Bottom line, the net effect is it turns a leading edge business to the least in their space. Very short term outlook and is not calibrated for the long haul. Forces employees to take the accrued vacations while management get's bonuses and project deadlines are not re-adjusted to required vacation forcing people to work on their vacation days.
