Pros

Relatively good benefits if you have a family. If you are a new graduate, it is a good company to start with.

Cons

This company does not rate employees' performance based on the job roles, many other X-factors are in play. Less chance to get promoted if you are already at a senior technical level.

Pros

Fast learning and some technically brilliant people. Hard working colleagues

Cons

Some teams and management are good but most of them lack direction and mismanage everything for the sake of agression. Technically zero people in management and overdo things. Recruit more and give more work. Once my manager counted my mails from me to track my performance on that day

Pros

Amazing technology - the products are state of the art, the environment is very fast paced and it can be a very exicting place to work. Its also very rewarding to see someone using a device you helped launch. Schedules are generally flexible, and the company provides swimming pools, full gym access to anyone who wants to use it, tennis courts, basketball courts, ping pong tables, free sodas, and if the admin in your area is cool, you can have munchies galore.

Cons

The atmosphere is very difficult and negative. There is no accountability, and it feels as if everyone is at war. In addition to the hositile environment, there are many mid-level managers that treat others like dogs. Nervous, negative yuckness is what it feels like as soon as you walk into the building (Q) , Whats worse is, your made to feel as if your contribution to the company means nothing; yyou are a dime a dozen. The mostly all male - mid-level managers have risen above, not because of talent or super abilities, because everyone who works there is in their own rite a "super star", and a "talented individual", it is because they are ruthless. Purely mean and terrible people.
