Pros
. Good benefits package
. Reasonably flexible management
. Relaxed work environment
. Good opportunities for travel
. A very good infrastructure for software development and good support staffCons
The senior management have a very strong San-Diego focus. If you're based outside of SD or, even worse, outside of the US get then you need to get used to being a second class corporate citizen.
The process for performance reviews is overly complicated, and the reviews themselves tend not to be very useful - mostly a box ticking exercise with no real useful feedback.Advice to Senior Management
Have another look at your appraisal process - it's overly complex and time-consuming for managers and doesn't address the needs of many employees.
Don't rest on your laurels - The core chip business is going to come under more and more pressure over the next few years, the company should try harder to find other business opportunities.
