Pros

Cannot think of any, other than tuition reimbursement, but every tech job at a mid to large size company does

Cons

Extremely poor management. No opportunities for advancement. Their approach to research and development of new products is always behind the technology curve. The accountability of issues and problems always falls upon the lowly engineers, managers don't report bad news up, because that is not what the middle/upper managers want to hear.

Pros

Not really much to work for at teradyne. The company is to be in good shape ten years ago but it has gone from a good company to work for to bad.

Cons

Layoffs come very often so no job security. There are job cuts going on as well. Most of their hiring is contracting that way the saved money. I was myself a contractor
