Pros

Great people and good work/life balance.

Cons

Software has lots of bugs and lacks real innovation. Many of the products look like left overs from the 1980's. They acquire other companies, layoff most of those employees, and then seem to have problems integrating those products into the existing mix. They need to focus more on having a small core of highly innovative products that stand above the competition instead of having hundreds of mediocre products lacking features and riddled with issues. Roadmaps rarely ever come to fruition. This company dreams big, but falls short. Althought it doesn't receive the same press BlackBerry does, they have had a lot of layoffs, while the current ELT and CEO make 4 times the amount the previous leadership team did.
