Pros

Small company making it easier to deliver projects. Lots if long term staff. When you start you are allowed to pick your end and start time eg 8-4, 8:30-4:30 or 9-5.

Cons

Little chance of progression as staff rarely left. Small company with some responsibilities not clearly defined.

Pros

Good variety of technology. Lots of opportunities for challenging work & growth. This company has survived through A Lot of challenges & keeps producing/surviving.

Cons

Your work/life balance varied greatly depending on which VP you were under/project you were on. Tool support for embedded SW was sub-par for most of my 20 years with them. Aside from grad school tuition help, the company was historically not good about promoting technical staff's technical development.
