Pros

Flexible Hours and good health insurance options.

Cons

No career development. Projects that go nowhere. No Risk/Reward. No Incentives for achievement. Get the same ~2% raise if you perform well or just do nothing. 401k Match is discretionary and only assessed once a year. Performance review system is a joke.

Pros

Some of the brightest people I have ever met and had the pleasure to work alongside. E INK started at MIT and still retains many MIT (and IVY league) graduates. Very, interesting technology that really captures the true essence of nanotechnology coupled with commercial success. People are quite friendly, and it is easy work on projects that one would be interested in working.

Cons

Moving away from Cambridge to Billerica will hurt the recruitment and retention of the best minds in Boston (and probably the world). The market size for e-readers has shrunk significantly due to tablets, and more marketing and new ideas needed fast. If you are looking to slow down, E INK might not be for you; it's very fast-paced, and energetic.

Pros

Proactively trying to improve the culture. Interesting products. Pushing the envelope of science.

Cons

* Groups are disjointed. Sr management in Taiwan. Communication w/ asian counterpart teams are tough due to cultural and language barriers: engineer cant talk directly to engineer without first talking to manager of the manager of the engineer that knows the need info. * Not much career growth as groups are pretty segregated by expertise, and growth within a group is limited.
