Pros

Looks good on resume. Good products. Free coffee, sodas and snacks.

Cons

Lack of communication (top down). Very political environment. Managers are reluctant to back employees and very quick to judge prior to getting the facts. Management guidance tends to change overnight with no communication to employee.

Pros

Technology, individual people, passion from old timers.

Cons

too many new Snr Directors, Directors, VPs brougt in without any posting of possibilities. Latest rankings as to potential kept secret from individuals, but apparently being used to make decisions. Very unclear on how internal growth of employees will be driven.

Pros

Very smart people Lots of things to learn Snacks in office. Very good gym for people who want to workout.

Cons

Management clueless. Sometimes they do not know what more to do. Career growth is close to zero, so if you have couple of years of experience and looking for growth, do not join.
