Pros

The opportunities to work on cutting edge products is everywhere. If you show the skills and desire to take on responsibilities, they will be given to you (carefully what you ask for).

Cons

you must be willing to accept the constant shifting of products and projects off shore (or out of the US at least). It's a cut dog eat dog business and the financial constraints can be brutal. The pace is absolutely frantic so you have to know when to take a break. Most of direction you receive comes in the form of "just get the job done so we can ship the goods"

Pros

Flexibility - you are able to work from home if you're productive enough. Fast pace - the more customers, the better...plus, positions are usually not backfilled, especially if the position is in the U.S.. Ukraine? no problem! Diversity - People from all over the world work here There's a basketball court here on the San Jose campus. Pretty decent benefits.

Cons

Lower salary than market "old boys's group" syndrome - relatively young workforce, but some who have been here stay, because they're buds with one of the executives Hesitant to spend money that needs to be spent. Diversity is great, but sometimes your teammates are in exotic places that sometimes require conference calls at exotic hours. No recognition - my coworker's ten year anniversary went unnoticed.
