Pros

The (few) good people are great. The beer. The Pinball Machine and VR. Office culture outside of work is good. (Some) projects are still interesting. The VDC unit is doing good work.

Cons

Forget your life, you will have none if you work here, the ones that made it at SHoP have no life outside the office. Mostly banal projects as of now, the ethos of innovation is gone, mostly taking on bread and butter projects to grease the machine. Brutal competitiveness between peers, who often throw each other under the bus to climb a step on the ladder. Inefficient and inexperienced senior management that got to places through favoritism. Ugly hierarchy of pointing fingers.
