Pros

Excellent Location (if you are working in San Diego), Flexibility to come at whatever time you like (up to 11 AM though), may do work from home

Cons

Long working hours, Can not leave early at all (Will be working till very very late), Lot of fire-fighting for meeting up crazy customer release schedules, no rewards for general people who work.

The best place I've ever worked.

Pros

Great management structure, supportive of innovation, provides all the resources you need to be successful, smartest coworkers I've ever had. It's a group of really smart people doing work they love with pretty much all of the resources they ask for.

Cons

Can be high pressure, with long hours close to deadlines. Male dominated, and most of the men have stay at home wives, so being a single female who doesn't have someone to do the support stuff at home, it can get exhausting.
