Pros

Highly Competitive and results oriented. Company trying to focus on innovation and new HR approaches for performance evaluation.

Cons

Pros

The workload is quite light and the culture and colleagues in the East Bay area are quite pleasant. For the amount of work the pay is good.

Cons

Its seems to be a 50/50 shot of having a manager who leads valuable ideas. Some groups are very poorly run with a manager that talks the talk but does not walk the walk. In fact, this talk-the-talk type mentality is greatly encouraged and valued above all else in management. A caveat is that some groups are run with laser precision and work on leading edge ideas. Its hit or miss. The disappointment comes from having a poorly run team not have any managerial consequences. The variability of this drives me crazy.

Pros

Reputed company. Big company. Good work culture. Some ethics and policies are awesome. Some employee benifits are good. Relies on legacy goodness. Work life balance.

Cons

No job security now a days. Not a great pay master. Not recommended for long term career.
