Pros

Excellent work life balance. Values technical skills above management skills. Can be good environment for very technical people.

Cons

Digital design flow is about 20 years behind state of the art. They are canceling DSP projects and shutting down design centers left and right. Focus is on analog development/MEMS. Very political environment that is poorly managed. Experience is valuedmore than innovation. Young engineers have difficulty earning respect and being heard. With 12 years of experience, I was referred to as a "kid".

Pros

For analog circuits, ADI is one of the best companies to work for. Environment is good, people are technically strong and you feel motivated to grow technically. Resources for learning are great. There is a whole range of circuits from amplifiers, comparators, switched capacitor circuits, ADC DAC which you can learn here in ADI and which will be valuable in Industry. Design cycle is short usually 6 months and you can be the owner of several chips in few years.

Cons

I think you have to spend at least 4-5 years before management seriously starts awarding you. Compensation wise not the best company to work for, but is fairly competitive. Though the environment is pretty relaxed but sometimes the deadlines are fairly tight.

Pros

The people there are great. The atmosphere is challenging but relaxed. You will be given a lot of responsibility if you want it. The work environment is not overly formal, and when you work in the lab the cress come can be very relaxed. Everyone I worked with was extremely friendly and made going to work every day a joy. I was also given a lot to do as a co-op and trusted with projects with large expenses and tight budgets. I was always encouraged by my managers.

Cons

Higher ups can be very demanding at times. Deadlines are sometimes unrealistic. This can be positive or negative depending on how you look at it. This can push you to get your work done or make you lazy if you feel as if you will not make the deadline anyway.
