Pros

Co-workers in IE and US are very close-knit and are great people to be around.

Cons

Changes at the top level of R&D have brought in exectutives that surround themselves with their own yes-people. This group have started killing teams and restructuring others. Any dissenting voices are either shouted down or are "not a team player". Hiring freezes yet increasing workload is causing burnout on all fields while the people in charge write emails & posts with hollow platitudes yet have not listened to anything. Reviews are more difficult, with VPs unilaterally lowering performance grades and promotions are essentially no longer an option for many people.

Pros

-it can be flexible just depending on who your manager is -well developed tams can be self sustaining and bring you to quota every month -nice perks like monthly stipends

Cons

-onboarding can be awful if you don't have the right person on your team -so many sales trainings and they don't always make sense
