Pros

- Onsite haircut, carwash, coffee with no rBST,order lunch waiters.com, 25c soda, free juice, Mac or Dell Laptop, massages, biweekly fruits, health benefits, vacation plan. - Depending on group there's leisure travel at various company or partner locations - You will get great feedback on your annual appraisal reviews, but don't expect any raise or promotions.As those reserved for some management favorites. - Rated one of the top places to work in 2011/2012. - Bicycles to ride between buildings, riding nearby trails also ok.

Cons

Cons - Company never made a dime all these years 13+.Business is focussed on IP battle field.Stock holders $$ burnt. - Directors and above in management, focused on outsourcing jobs to Indian companies like Tavant technologies, Cognizant, Wipro anther way to earn backdoor $$.Corporate Mafia.There is an official outsourcing director under Senior VP. - Efficiency of projects, example now 10-to-20 outsourcing people on a project in offshore team, when compared with 2-3 fulltime regular employees onsite. - Management has a don't care attitude towards employees, kicking and spending unnecessary projects to gain their quaterly bonus.This company does pay bonus to manager and above, inspite making quarterly losses.How to spend or get bonus is super high priority. - This place has lots and lots of single managers, single directors and I've seen single VP's too.LOL.
