      Pros

      Great Product. Somehow, they manage to churn out good products. Salaries are decent. Stock price is going up.

      Cons

      People are really not that smart. Most are middle aged. The young guys are the kind who are not very ambitious (yeah - I have a girlfriend so I want to get done with the work). It is the kind of place where if you were to suggest some startup idea over lunch, they (your colleagues) will shoot it down. Very uninspiring.

      Pros

      We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

      Cons

      ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
