Pros

401K match, company paid health insurance (now I hear you have a deductible), good work life balance (almost too good), paid overtime

Cons

Most of the projects worked had 1:1 ratio of managers to engineers. It's very top heavy. However, before I left, they started pink slipping all the upper people that weren't adding value to the company. Company specialty is hardware. It does not know how to write "good" software. Most managers will assign whoever they want to "code" regardless of technical background. Budgets come and go. Not a good working environment if you want long term ownership of a project.

Pros

- Interesting projects - Working with bright people

Cons

- Complex management structure. - Management are mostly far removed from anything technical, making decision purely on numbers - Managers don't stay in position for too long. Often they don't get to feel the consequences of their decision (good or bad). If there is no feedback, it's hard for them to make adjust or improvement.
