Pros

1 - The takeover has filled sycophants with near Stockholm Syndrome levels of optimism and affection, and eventually that has to rub off on everyone else, right? 2 - If you're willing to throw your colleagues and friends under the bus, you can have a job for another couple of months (or longer if you're really good at it...the betrayal that is, not your actual job). 3 - There are printers you can use for your resume.

Cons

It doesn't matter how much you loved the company before the takeover, how hard you work or how good your work is; if your function can be relocated to Minnesota, make no mistake, it will be. There is no love lost, the new management are interested in the bottom dollar and who will help them get there. Staff are an expendable asset. Morale is in the toilet, with staff unsure of their future and the future of the company. No one can do their best work in that kind of environment.

This is NOT the Perforce you're looking for.

Pros

- there are still some good people working here - the Perforce (Helix) Server is a rock solid, enterprise level SCM - sycophants can do well

Cons

- what is actually good long term for the product and staff is not even a fleeting consideration - performance is measured solely by metrics and not quality - executive team are as ruthless and calculating as can be imagined - micromanagement ad infinitum
