Pros

Nice people to work with. Easy going atmosphere. Very stable emplyment. Some very smart people (not enough). Sunnyvale is a very nice location.

Cons

Satisfaction will vary greatly depending on the division you work for. I worked in one of the smaller divisions where Trmble used to be a market leader. They are now struggling to compete with newer more nimble competitors.

Pros

Good benefits Pleasant buidings and work space laid-back casual atmosphere flexibility over all a good company profit driven conscientious business practices ability to move within the company if you are willing to travel and/or relocate often implementing six sigma program to improve

Cons

3 weeks of forced PTO per year uses up ALL the PTO you get until you hit the 5 year mark and start accruing an additional week. Also, you don't get to choose when to have your vacation time. it will be the week of 4th of July and the 2 weeks of Thanks giving and Christmas. This year, we are forced in to 2 weeks Christmas/New Years and they are giving us an additional 3 holidays to compensate so most people don't have to go unpaid. The company is very segmented and lacks cohesiveness on a basic level. Different business areas have different systems for order entry, accounting, and operations which conflict and make for multiple overlapping systems that have to be managed. Very inefficient
