Pros

- Engineering focused - Innovative culture, although this has a dark side as well (Duplication of effort and inefficiency) - Compensation higher than industry average

Cons

- Not perceived as a great place to work - Behaves like a cluster of competing business units - High inconsistency in skill level depending on business units - Needs to pay attention to employee "intangibles" -- i.e. make it a*GREAT* place to work, ala Google. - Senior management seems disconnected from reality - IT policies are a drag
