Pros

Only if you are passionate with database core technology and you got an offer for such works.

Cons

No respect. Engineers must work very hard to get a "so-so" rating. Managers like to micro-manage all things. Want your daily report. Check your arrival time in the morning and expect you to go home late and then attend meetings at nights, even mid-nights. Managers are hired through a process that don't really ask for tech skills/knowledge, but then act as the tech lead and show no respect to engineers. Engineers are all good and other employers keep coming to hire from Sybase employees.

Pros

Will be merged into SAP and we are getting stock options, more benefits, etc.

Cons

Bad management style. Treated Chinese engineers as cheap labor (hopefully SAP will not do this. otherwise I'll have to go).
