      Pros

      High tech, cutting edge, advanced ICs that are taking market share from much bigger competitors. Stock options. Smart people. Learning environment. May make money someday.

      Cons

      Very fast pace and demanding work environment. A bit unorganized on running programs, with plenty of shifting people around to fit holes in the development process. Weak vacation policy, and one that requires upper management approval, and scrutiny, for even a few days off. Poor management communication. Lot of turn over with colleagues. Keep your butt in the seat and work long hours. 4 people in a cube, loud environment.

      Pros

      Great Engineers, talented, efficient, extremely hard working. It's overall a very motivated environment.

      Cons

      Very unprofessional management. Bad people skills. Some upper/senior management has no idea how to manage, extremely micromanagement (very low efficiency). Even criticize other management colleagues behind scene. No respect for engineers. Always trying to show their "superior" knowledge in a very detailed problem, but usually never able to solve it. Always think what engineers doing is a very simple problem without realizing the complexity of the problem. Please leave those things to your technical directors.
