Pros

Great cutting-edge technologies. Great as your first job in RF area. Great boss and teamwork. Very little politics.

Cons

Does not pay very well. Work life balance needs improvement. Needs to commute sometimes. But it is heard that these have been improved a lot now.

Pros

Nothing per se. Located in good cities, San Jose, Irvine and Carlsbad. Everything else doesn't matter. Tried hard but cannot think of any.

Cons

Pathetic management with unrealistic expectations. Please do not end up here. Totally immature managers trying to climb up the ladder at the cost of employees.
