Pros

Get to work on all the new hardware. Get to work my own hours pretty much.

Cons

Long hours, little recognition. Cafeteria is a little expensive. It getting really crowded here also. Many people are now 2 to an office. Too many engineers turned managers that don't know how to manage people.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
