Pros

- Great 401k match - Good work/life balance - Some travel abroad - Incredible R&D - Interesting projects - Talented and friendly designers

Cons

- Some incredible R&D but it's never implemented into the devices - Too many OSs and devices to provide quality designed UI and software - Unfortunate new Silicon Valley slant. If you aren't willing to move to that boring, overpriced area, you're not going to have promotion opportunities. - Blatant nepotism. Frequent promotion of fellow former IBM and Microsoft employees over more qualified individuals. - Lack of leadership training for managers

Pros

Great co-workers and local management. Interesting work projects. Fully committed to AI-enabled software development.

Cons

Unwritten expectation for evenings and weekend additional work. Felt like upper management viewed us as costs, instead of people.
