Pros

I am challenged every day. I am constantly learning and stretching my capabilities. Benefits are great.

Pros

Lots of friendly and competent people to work with There are some interesting technical problems to solve (if you can get on one of those projects) The benefits are good.

Cons

Poor/hostile relations between teams on separate sites Too much reinventing the wheel - groups have no idea what tools, libraries, functionality have already been written in house Long process for using OSS (GPL not allowed) in projects Management does whatever it thinks best without asking employees Management is trying to do more with less employees and work-life balance suffers Management jerks teams around. They give you a project then transfer it away then assign another and then transfer it away. That does wonders for morale. Everything moves very slowly. Adoption of new technology and methodology is years behind.

Pros

The pay and benefits are outstanding and while this is beneficial personally, there is a complete lack of connecting performance to that pay and bonus. Depending on your job, flexibility in work/life balance.

Cons

Not a people company . . . lack of local management, accountability, career development. The culture is one of a lack of values and trust. . . have to watch your back constantly. Total lack of decision making and the pace of software development is competitively lacking. Germans can't be fired and control the major decisions and they let you know it constantly. If mediocrity is your goal, you'll have lots of company!
