      Pros

      - Good work-life balance - Good benefits - Visionary CEO (... but is losing charm slowly).

      Cons

      - Company is not growing as such. Growth in earning is purely by acquiring new companies. - No company growth => No career growth. - Too much people stuck at mid-level so not much room for growth. - Poor mid-level management. - 401(k) matching is $1500/year.

      Pros

      If you want a CEO that specializes is tanking the stock firing engineers, getting the company hijacked by private equity, and cheating employees out of their bonuses using magic company performance math, this is the company for you.

      Cons

      The company’s greatest “pros” are also its greatest “cons”
