Pros

Benefits, pay, location.Potentially great technology to explore.If they ever get their act together.

Cons

Low level work, high mid management turnover/rotation. Overall the company is very management heavy. Every manager has different expectations, so their is some clamoring for people to move around to get under the more reasonable managers.. Some people are still coasting because of their relationships. Managers with superiority complexes. wrong people being rewarded. No stock options, or profit sharing options available to non executive level employees.

Technology driven company on the forefront of ground mobile robots, semi autonomous behaviors and gesture recognition.

Cons

Very process heavy, meetings to discuss upcoming meetings, formulaic management practices, little recognition of talent/capability if the person doesn't have an advanced college degree (master's minimum).
