    Motorola Software Engineer in Arlington Heights, IL:   (Current Employee)

    Pros

    Work / life balance and flexible work hours
    Benefits / MOTShare
    Paid for phone service
    Learning from a few really talented employees

    Cons

    Managers and politics dictate how developers work
    Slow to market and slow moving
    Too much formal process
    No US job security

    Advice to Senior Management

    First of all middle level managers should enable their front line employees and not hinder them for personal glory. Too many bad decisions were made due to pride or politics instead of being in the best interest of the company. Also Motorola must continue to take innovation risks and push the envelope. Look at Apple. Motorola should not be a follower in the race to innovate.
