Business Outlook

Pros

Overall pleasant work environment. It's cool to be part of where AutoCAD and lots of other 3D design software come from. Good work-life balance. Some of the managers were the best I've ever met.

Cons

Limited opportunities for professional growth. Frequent re-orgs. The team where I belonged had East Asians who had a more stifling work ethic (very hierarchy-centric) which meant difficulty in collaboration. Waste of skills and talents of some people who are limited to working the same repetitive tasks everyday.
