Pros

employees are very smart and very technical . nice location. nice size cubicle. coworkers are usually very friendly. Once in a while you will meet a couple of difficult people but WDC has a training class to teach you how to deal with them . SO, you get the hint :)

Cons

culture is to send out email after midnight to demonstrate you work very hard. Bosses don't really care if you delivered project. As far as you work until 3 am every one will be happy.

Generally Good Company

Pros

Flexible working schedule, friendly co-worker, great ESPP program. Management generally open to changes that improve efficiency. Fast working pace to keep you busy for challenge. People who perform will generally get promoted.

Cons

Company is cost efficient so there is not much work perk. Many people are forced to take two weeks shutdown using their own vacation. Working space is tight and is getting worse as more people coming in. Health Care benefit is subpar as only HSA is offered.
