Pros

Top-notch semiconductor research opportunities Easy to switch divisions to experience new fields

Cons

Management hierarchy very strict. Communication between teams limited by design due to confidentiality. Inter-section cooperation limited by politics and a need to "look good" despite being one building apart. Facilities and factories in very rural areas.
