Pros

They have good people who work hard. Everyone is pretty friendly. They provide fresh fruit.

Cons

I'm going to repeat another review because they captured it perfectly. -Slim to no career development or growth plan -Executive leadership very disconnected from the rank-and-file -there is no vision or mission of the company -Always pushing a "do more with less" mentality (plan to work crazy hours because they can't plan and manage a schedule) -Lots of patronage - internal opportunities not given based on merit - one of the reasons this company won't do well.

Pros

If you enjoy audio, you may find the work to be interesting.

Cons

Below senior management, managers love to micromanage. Employees can be sent off at a moments notice to the far reaches of the world. Too much time spent in meetings rather than getting any real work done. The more interesting work is given to contractors or shipped overseas. Benefits are poor. Subpar 401k choices (high fees) and no company match. Very disorganized. Priorities are constantly changing. I have no idea how this company competes with other companies in the bay area for employees. There are little, if any, perks and I have yet to see the company do anything that I would consider to be fun. It is just work, work, work.
