      Pros

      The benefits are second to none, the atmosphere is laid back and focused on results more than brownnosing and politcs, to an extent. You can advance pretty far being techincal, without having to sell your soul and get a lobotomy to join middle management.

      Cons

      The stock has stagnated for 10 years. Lots of employee whining. Senior management seems to be in a Microsoft "Bubble" and have no idea what is going on in the industry. Many people focus on playing internal games and coming up with new policies and procedures that arrive to a great deal of fanfare, get lots of attention for 2 or 3 months, and then fade back into the ooze, only to be replaced six months later with something new.

      Pros

      Good environment to work in. Nice facilities and good associates. We have an excellent team of professionals. they are almost all willing to go the extra mile to succede.

      Cons

      Hubris -think we are the best. A little more humility would go a long way. Additionally, whiule we are trying to imp-rove the security of outr products, we always seem to be a step behind. We need an innovative approach. Acquiring small firms is perhaps not the total answer. We need a new philosophical direction.
