Great people and sound engineers. Feel of a small company while working for a large corporation. Empowered to use the best tools and solutions (although this may change...)

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent health benefits and compensation. Management is upfront with it's people in difficult times and I respect that. Flexibility in start time and time off policies are excellent.

Cons

Cooperation between groups or business fields is sometimes somewhat limited.Better communication between groups could be established and invite a true team atmosphere. The merging of 3 companies ( Conti, SVDO, and Motorola ) has been a long drawn out process.
