Pros

From a company standpoint they are stable. They have great resources at your disposal.

Cons

You definitely have to drink the koolaid here and kiss all the right butts. Senior management makes all the decisions. Even if you do a great job that will be overlooked if you aren't kissing Sr. Managements butt. They have a sense of arrogance that I never saw when I was there but on the outside people know this and it's a knock on the company. Get ready to jump through hoops if you want to be hired there. You may even be lied to more than once.

Pros

The values are do the right thing and think long term - hard to get better than that. Work life balance is also quite good.

Cons

Software only, not much hardware. Limited ambition among coworkers.
