Pros

Still has some very talented engineers. Work/life balance is good.

Cons

- Very, very, very slow moving company that is overburdened by deadwood middle managers. - employees below VP level do not count and are treated as expendable - no loyalty...in fact long-term employees are considered high cost and there is often effort to replace them with younger "lower cost" new hires - wrong place for hard-charging ambitious people as it will drain your energy through negativity and being pulled down by the deadwood middle management

Pros

Culture Team Collaboration Most Benefits

Cons

Could use more investments in the workplace (outdated with deferred maintenance). Recent history of under-investing in New Products. This is changing, but well behind competitors. Extreme expense management for a consistent amount of time leads to a noticeable drop in innovation and innovative spirit.
