Work with the latest technology with very sharp engineers

Pros

Engineers are given a lot of control/autonomy with their projects - great for people who want to drive projects and ideas, work on hard problems. Great access to the very latest IC technology. Lots of opportunity for customer interaction.

Cons

High profile projects can become bogged down due to too many cooks in the kitchen. Broad requirements can have a similar effect.

Pros

Great place to start you career. Fairly easy to experience different job within the company ; R&D, MKT, Sales... Good company culture

Cons

Pay is very average. (If you're not an engineer, chances are well below) We've had great company culture for long time, but as we are hitting the $1B mark, we're starting to see the disruption of it due to some hiring from outside, especially in the area of upper management.

Pros

Understanding and tolerate manager. Constant respect to each other.

Cons

Maybe a too-relax environment for fresh grad as fresh grad should strive to learn as much technique and learn stress management as much as possible.
