Business Outlook

Pros

-great standard compensation, excellent opportunities to earn more by hitting bonus targets -caliber of colleagues is very good in every department, although deeply entrenched politicking distorts promotion decisions -market leading software with near-constant innovation keeps life fresh and interesting

Cons

-happy to hire women, but unless you know someone, prepare to work twice as hard for half the recognition. From what I saw, time to promotion is at least 1.5x longer. -impossible to escape the office politics, although the quantity and dramatics of office romances are entertaining to behold.
