Pros

Really great people to work with. I think it will be hard to find similar in future jobs (but hope I am wrong). Great culture and quality products.

Cons

It's very bureaucratic, and you are kind of locked into your pre-described skill set. Morale was low due to lots of lay offs in the last four or so years. Quality goes down as poeple have more and more to do with less resources.

Pros

Great co-workers, decent benefits, flextime.

Cons

Poor communication, low salaries, minimal training, poor planning at the upper management level, employees often must work long hours with no overtime. All of the above causes very low morale.
