Pros

Heath scheme Stock options Working for a good software brand

Cons

Behind the scenes though.... - Constant restructure - Constant cost cutting - at the expense of letting go of employees, only to have remaining cash flow that must be spent each quarter! Dumb - Little room for lower-end employees to advance - Lots of favoritism in the workplace shown by managers - Communication could be better across divisions
