Pros

Salaries are high, promotions are at reasonable pace, collaborative work environment, good products, used to have good talented design engineers

Cons

Shrinking, poor top management decisions, missed the handheld and ultra mobile markets, some decisions are made by slow wide consensus, rather than by a few competent people, too much emphasis on cost reduction at the expense of quality, too many VPs, 3X more than Intel but 1/8 of Intel's size.
