Pros

The people are great. There are a lot of good products and projects going on. Moving towards newer technologies, and at the forefront of IoT. Benefits are excellent. Hard to find elsewhere. Great work/life balance.

Cons

Layoffs to make numbers. Instead of investing in the people to make the products that will sell, they just layoff more people. It really hits morale and it has been really bad the past few years.

Pros

Great people, customers, products. The culture has improved significantly over the past 5 years or so, and now feels like a relatively modern software company. Exec leadership is very good, Neil is fantastic.

Cons

Mid-level exec leaders, VP level, are still very political. Salaries are way below average.
