Pros

Good Pay , housing for interns paid in half, dental, vision and health covered too! The Boston design center have good amount of young people in a flat hierarchy structure. It makes very easy to work with everybody, people is really friendly and reply to each other queries within minutes. There used to be free coffee, cafeteria inside, and very close to building entrances parking lot. The center is accesible right off the highway, very fast commute. All the cubicles have a huge dual screen setup, system support is really fast getting back at you and there is a pretty forest you can walk on those frustrated days with the CAD tools :)

Cons

company is lossing a lot of money several quarters in a row and the stock is very depreciated

Pros

You get to work with some of the best engineers. Also, working on some of the most complex designs gives you ample opportunities to learn and innovate.

Cons

Although the top management is focused and working hard, there seems to be disconnect between them and lower management ranks. First and second level managers are more busy managing their bosses and impressing them than growing team and managing the work.

Pros

- interesting products, being #2 doesn't mean your product is that bad - opportunities for internal transfer - challenging problems in both product and research work - generally smart coworkers - feeling of a shared goal / decent morale - fairly open to suggestions for product improvement

Cons

- company in permanent financial trouble; don't count on a bonus - low-grade work environment (cube farm with buzzing fluorescents) - some projects get cancelled, sucks if yours does - missing recognition even with excellent reviews - easy to get stuck with uninteresting, long-term maintenance tasks if you're not careful to avoid them immediately
