Pros

Good benefit and paid holidays. 9/80 work schedule for most departments, Flexible working condition. A vast pool of internal job openings is a good opportunity to move within the company.

Cons

The middle management is basically useless in this company. The worker bee mentality is enforced in most divisions which limits individual creativity. If you are hired with a low salary then your only chance to get a good raise and promotion is to apply for another job or move out of the company.

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
