Pros
They are willing to invest in employee education. They are growing by acquisition. Atmosphere is somewhat informal and flexible. Finance department has done a terrific job of managing post-Motorola spin-off debt burden. Sales Leadership has typically been very positive with a 'can-do' attitude. They are a strong player in the discrete markets.
Cons
Rating and ranking system of 360 degree reviews can be very political. Somewhat regular waves of layoffs and frequent re-organizations-very demoralizing. Not uncommon for frequent job (lateral) changes do to frequent re-orgs. This can make it difficult to see strategic work through to completion (we all want to feel we accomplished something). SVP of HR manages upward and is rarely seen meeting with employees below leadership level positions (C-level, VPs and directors).
