Pros

Brand value, Great place to learn, If you love to work hard, this is the best place, all opinions from any level engineer are considered.

Cons

Some BUs are terrific, lots of unwanted people roaming around just becaus of politics and makes others life difficult. There are people working all ways in a week, Some people want to bring change, but few others doesn't allow as the are afraid of latest technologies which they don't know.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
