Pros

One on one interactions with specific hardware, software, mechanical engineers. Some wonderful individuals in an overall negative, difficult, dispiriting environment.

Cons

The work environment includes many individuals who put in 100% without acknowledgment or reward. The ingredients to create a strong work environment are present in these people. But the preponderance of managers who have no regard for their employees prevents that.

Pros

Interesting technology that pushes the limits of the technology. Surrounded by some very bright people with varied interests. Nice campus Great cafeteria!

Cons

layoffs nearly every quarter. Overstaffing in one area to get job accomplished quickly then "Skills rebalancing", translation we are done with you now and need to get rid of you to hire a different skill set. Outsourcing of areas that should remain a core competancy. Recrruiting the "best and brightest from key Universities and then not giving them any mentoring. Resulting in often bright innovative ideas, though poorly executed and greatly missed schedule

Engineers are an asset to the company. Benefits package and vacation time are excellent. Middle order management is helpful and understanding.

No opportunities or training for growth. Not enough flexibility in switching different divisions. Engineers not sent to customer site to experience field work.
