Pros

Competitive salary and benefits Great work location and environment, with fitness club and restaurant on-site Opportunity to travel worldwide Great core IP

Cons

Still acts like a startup after more than 20 years Engineering execs can't grasp importance of marketing Products sometimes launched without consumer/customer research Acquisition of M-Systems hasn't helped the company Business unit model and reorgs not working Management positions very political -- most held by Israelis formerly of M-Systems Growth strategy based on never-ending demand from consumers for more memory, but when is enough enough?
