Pros

Life saving products, great people in the non-managerial ranks, willing to invest in technology, for the most part, to support company initiatives

Cons

Beware around quarter and year-end periods, the company tries to slash their way to profitability and good numbers on paper. They have a habit of buying out smaller companies, taking their IP then letting them go. At times it seems like multiple, dysfunctional companies trying to operate as one.
