Pros

Benefits are decent. The building is conveniently located next to the San Jose airport.

Cons

Rank/file employee turnover at this business unit is incredibly high. Specifically, turnover is at least 4-5 times higher than most Silicon Valley companies. As a result, this business unit is "always hiring." In contrast, no one in senior management has left this business unit in the past 10 years. HR is aware of some (but probably not all) of the problems that exist in this business unit. However, unlike an American company, HR is powerless to do anything.

Pros

Co-workers are friendly and many friendships were made during my tenure there. Everyone wants to succeed and everyone works together to get projects done.

Cons

Constant fear of job layoff can be a difficult work environment. Many times employees who are left after a layoff in a department are expected to continue performing or increase productivity with less manpower.
