Pros

Lots of good people, interesting products, projects and customers

Cons

Since founder (Dr T) retired has been going downhill fast. Wrong people put in positions of power in many projects, and bureaucracy and 'wall street logic' are bringing down good projects. Salary and titles are behind the rest of the industry.
