Pros

401k, pension, tuition reimbursement, great vacation benefits, relaxed culture, great pay

unethical and uninformed management who generally haven't earned their positions; rather they mostly just happened into them - right place right time.

Pros

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Cons

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
