Pros

Really great and smart people work there. Benefits package is very good. If you have a high tollerance for disfunction, you can gain a great deal of experience. You get to work on interesting products.

Cons

No clear strategy at a corporate, divisional, and product levels. Senior managament is not allowed to make the desicions neccessary to do their job well, which causes a great deal of backlash. Bullying occurs as the highest levels in the organization and is tollerated as part of the culture. Pay scale is not in line with the market. "Launch" mentality prevents us from getting the best and right products to the market. There is never the time to do the right solution, only the fastest one.
