Pros

Fast paced technology in a Consumer electronics market. Work on products that end up in the stores and used by the general public. You can witness how markets get steered by global events and your company along with it.

Cons

Technically incompetent management. Bad planning and work division among employees. Lack of focus in projects.

Pros

Money is ok, fast paced, and very high tech. Learned a lot in the early part of my career, but lately i've been turned in an execution machine that can have no opinion on anything. very very fast paced, you can learn a lot at the beginning...

Cons

They work you like crazy with no regard for your personal life. Every project is the most urgent thing on the face of the planet. Most of the time these projects flop and never sell. That doesn't motivate people when we work like crazy to get the chips out the door only to have nothing to show for it but layoffs. Errrrrrr!

Pros

Chance to work on latest technologies and processors Opportunity to work with high end tools Professional work environment and support teams.

Cons

Dotted line and matrix reporting causes more confusion than its usability. Adhering to processes is a bit lax (though it seems to be improving now) Managers dont have much capacity to identify performers from non performers hence career growth gets difficult.
