Pros

- Good individual contributor peers - Stable job once you prove yourself and have right friends - Pride in fighting against big bad Intel

Cons

- Management style breeds psychophancy, and most managers tend to rest on past laurels - Lip service paid to employee feedback on how to improve the company - Management is usually in firefighting/reactive mode, giving very little thought to long term development (company's as well as employee's) - Managers' reviews hardly involve any feedback from employees
