Pros

Good pay and benefits (profit sharing, etc.). Opportunities to work on cutting edge designs.

Cons

Horrible work/life balance. There are too many mid-level managers with nothing to do but micromanage tasks which they are unable to comprehend. Negativity never improved a schedule.

Pros

Smart, Hard Workers can be rewarded with more responsibilities and higher pay. Also, there are so many different groups within the company it is fairly easy to move around if the current position is not ideal.

Cons

Like any large company, you occasionally bang your head against the wall when trying to achieve goals with different approaches than the norm of the machine. Politics come in to play more than necessary.

Pros

Texas enjoys a lower cost of living and there are no state taxes. Consequently you save more and enjoy a better quality of family life

Cons

Classic old-age politics exist. Management and senior management are detached from technology changes. Schedule pressures are rampant with bad decisions being made to get product out on schedule with possible silicon failure. Severe understaffing within projects and only new-grads being hired which stresses the senior staff even more. No value for technical inputs from senior technical folks, rather ill-informed partially knowledgeable managers are being tapped from above for feedback. Useless focus on ridiculous cost-savings within the technical staff when so much is blown up on management travel that achieves nothing of value. No career growth path and most engineers have resigned to the fact of being assembly line workers in a high-tech industry.
