Pros

Relatively good benefits if you have a family. If you are a new graduate, it is a good company to start with.

Cons

This company does not rate employees' performance based on the job roles, many other X-factors are in play. Less chance to get promoted if you are already at a senior technical level.

Pros

Very good medical and dental plan. San Diego is a good place to work.

Cons

1) Managers are technically inept. Especially, there are so many directors and senior directors that you forget count of them. 2)There is a lot of stress on minute issues or the same issue coming up in a different ways. 3) Promotions are based on number of hours put in. No respect for quality of work but stress on quantity of work. This goes back to the point mentioned above. Since mangers are technically not smart, they don't have clue about time taken for a task. 4)No freedom/room to work outside of your assignment. Very poor in terms of inernal group transfers.
