Pros

Great retail and operator products. Some great people trying to make those continue to succeed. Not much required of you outside of normal work hours.

Cons

New owners from Rovi are clueless on product space, yet they are demanding to call all the shots without asking for advice from the legacy TiVo employees who actually do the work but are listening to the executive managers that stayed and that made most of the mistakes in the past. People that can leave and executives that were smart are leaving in droves, those that failed with the original TiVo are being promoted by the idiot new owners.

Pros

technically well-grounded, innovating engineering teams work/life balance minimal politics (probably because, there's no big bonus money and no salary raises to fight among)... there's still some politics are various levels, but lease I've seen in Bay Area tech companies

Cons

pathetic salary raises, pretty much none... if you get 2% raise annually, you must be in someone's good books though technical leaders are good, there's no growth in career because number of people are locally reducing and off-site (Romania/India) are growing... makes sense economically, but if you're looking to grow in career... this is not the place to be
