Pros

Some really cool technology and lots of untapped potential. Most co-workers are very passionate and capable, if not shell-shocked from round after round of layoffs. A good place if you're really into office politics.

Cons

Few, if any, of the executives are true leaders. The current path seems to indicate the company will become irrelevant -- there appears to be no real strategy whatsoever other than laying off more and more people. Colleagues in Japan are in no way aligned with local realities; duplicate and contrary efforts abound.

Pros

Great benefits, good people to work with. A long history of engineering and product excellence. World top five brand leader.

Cons

The company is doing drastic cost cutting to stay afloat, and is not able to pursue innovative new products because of financial issues.

Pros

Good pay, set your own hours, free giveaway items, and decent opportunity to advance. Good experience. Free trip to san diego. Flexible schedule.

Cons

Lots of red tape at times, sometimes hard to use individual judgment and creativity, and must be able to work independently for long periods of time.
