Pros

The management is good at seeing industry trends, makes swift decisions and keeps employees informed. They are transparent and you feel like a family. No unnecessary walls between individual contributors vs the management. They never or rarely have layoffs.

Cons

Due to the small size of the company (1/10 the number of employees compared to Intel) and because they never or rarely have layoffs, overall engineering talent is mixed and a portion of the employees have to take extra load, but then they also get rewarded well.

Pros

The pay is really nice. 3/4 managers I've had actually seem to care! Nice location for most folks.

Cons

They will keep you on contract until they literally cannot anymore. Getting hired on full-time is like pulling teeth.
