      Great leadership, smart employees, fast paced culture but fulfilling work

      Senior financial analyst

      Pros

      Being in finance, you get a lot of exposure to how the company is run and exposure to the leadership -- I had the utmost respect for John Coyne, a brilliant mind who I felt could do everyone's job better than they could! The campus is decent (I love Irvine) and truly felt that everyone had a meaningful role to the company.

      Cons

      People need to understand that the hard drive industry's margins are tight, so the company may seem "cheap" with certain things. The office interior might seem too corporate (a maze of cubicles) but it works.

      Front-line software tools management doesn't believe in doing the job right, only in getting something out the door

      Staff software engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The ability to purchase company products on discount is a nice benefit, and the levels of compensation match what other companies in the industry offer, and the stock price makes a nice addition to one's portfolio.

      Cons

      Middle management doesn't listen to their internal domain experts, and lower management doesn't support their employees' expert knowledge when they are advised against a poor course of action.
