Pros

the mission seems great - working to help save lives, technology is neat, campus facilities are nice, work hours are reasonable, big company benefits

Cons

very little respect for the individual working at the company - management will talk about the mission but dump people by the side of the road based only on monetary reasons.

Pros

Very supportive Sr level management team

Cons

There was some crab barrel mentality among peers. I trusted no one with personal information to it being used against me early on. I was so secretive that no one knew what type of vehicle I drove for over 10 yrs.
