Pros

Good salary and learn many skills

Cons

Too much politics, very hard for non Irish to get any promotion. You cannot get a higher position if you are not making friends with the management, staying many hours extra and take on other projects on the top of your own work. Management are chosen depending on who they know and not for their skills so lots of them are pretty incompetent. Many decisions the company makes increase the difficulty for the employees to work well. You are asked to work 125% percent all the time, stay extra hours and treated like a robot

Pros

Work on products everyone knows. Large corp benefits. Commute Alternatives throughout SF Bay Area.

Cons

You basically have to work in Cupertino. Reluctance for telecommuting options. You will work many more hours than what you are payed for 99% guaranteed. Minimal childcare benefits (e.g. no onsite daycare). Crammed office buildings - small offices are shared between 2-3 people, some people get make-shift desks in hallways and lounge areas.

Pros

average to above average salary and perks stable job routine work which is mostly done by contractors, you can sit idle if you like this approach you don't need to work hard to improve your technical skills :-)

Cons

poor poor work culture hardly any thought process into building good, crisp, intelligent solutions claim to fame is business intelligence, absolutely no work done with predictive intelligence mostly routine work of building useless reports and some dashboards if you are a strong / good technical engineer looking to do some good creative work, do not join here plenty of managers who have no vision, no management experience many non technical senior managers who are extremely proud of not knowing what's happening in the industry and their poor technical skills lots of politics that kill innovation and new ideas as frequently as possible few political honchos who need to approve anything and everything that needs to happen knee jerk reaction is the long term strategy mechanism unfortunately :-( no opportunities for employees to grow or build a defined career path plenty of discrimination based on bias, favoritism very very minimal diversity in teams and on top of that as if to promote diversity, they encourage less than smart people to grow (that further leads to frustration in engineers if u r good at what u do)
