Pros

Stable environment. Smart co-workers. Generally able to balance work & life. Good if you are in an engineering or sales or core product development role.

Cons

Hard to feel fulfilled, feel like you are part of a giant machine. Not a great place for pure marketing career.

Pros

You have a job at least. you can work from home, insurance is pretty good, keep your head down and don't complain, and they won't bother you

Cons

Pay really sucks, as does management; really, no real managment, just covering their you know whats. Now in the recession, they want to 'Lift' employees, and asking for ways to save money, but after years of no raises or bonuses, no one will speak on Calls. They have to bribie employees to ask questions on conf.calls now, after all the questions were about Raises, and they refused to answer those kinds of questions

Pros

Employee benefits (e.g., insurance, etc.), work location in the Peninsula which always has beautiful weather, corporate perks (e.g., food/drink on the floor), ability to work from home, great technical resources, extremely talented and hungry employee base, a beautiful corporate campus, provides a great name and reference on a resume.

Cons

Not a true meritocracy, the entire business relies on the database, politics plays a huge part within the organization, "what happens when Larry leaves?," many employees are great at their positions but that leaves some decisions and insights to be binary in nature (e.g., either you're brilliant or this is the most doomed idea on the planet).
