Pros
-If you are 55 and above it is a great place to work because: 1. Most people are not held accountable 2. There are probably greater number of slackers than you 3. Lay offs have reduced in the recent yrs 4. Good bloated pay checks 5. Company is surviving because of a few top quality engineers
Cons
1. Unqualified people are promoted, making the middle-level management extremely weak 2. Ass-kissing is a must. If you don't chances are there is no career advancement 3. Abuse of authority by people who should not have it in the first place 4. In order to get promoted, one has to be part of the good ol' boy network 5. Company is so busy with acquisitions they are forgetting to improve in-house existing talent 6. People do not work as a team or towards a common goal because every employee is rated against others when it comes to performance evaluations (old motorola methods) 7. Good talent is not appreciated or rewarded (excepting people who follow con #2 mentioned here)
