Pros

9/80 schedule, brilliant co-workers, culture of excellence, and annual IdeaQuest design contest are really outstanding.

Cons

Politics, shifting priorities and constant re-orgs make it a risky place for career and skill development. Influx of bad execs eroding the culture. Poor stock compensation for engineers. Bad place to develop new skills as the company is pretty old-school.

Like the 9/80 schedule . Some people are nice and friendly. Compensation was good compare to other companies.

Cons

too political I might say! If you are not the favorite person within that department good luck to you. Department that I used to worked is sooo disorganized ,management don't know what they are doing.
