Pros

The free cards are very nice, especially before they are released. There are some very nice benefits. In the past the stock options were very nice.

Cons

There really is too much nepotism. There really is not too much process not there rightly or wrongly. There really is way too much politics. You really do need to be on the hardware team to be respected at all. Being in Software is being on the second class team.

Engineering led company Smart people to work with Always learning

Processes and checks/balances not always followed (no strong rigid process flow which can be good/bad) Company still too consumer product focused (versus corporate) in many divisions

Pros

The pay is really nice. 3/4 managers I've had actually seem to care! Nice location for most folks.

Cons

They will keep you on contract until they literally cannot anymore. Getting hired on full-time is like pulling teeth.
