Pros

9 to 5 hours; You don't actually have to do real work to get ahead, all you have to do is suck up to management and just keep nodding; Decent pay package. There is a decent gym. You will be working on really complicated designs. If you are self-motivated, you will learn a lot about x86 design.

Cons

No career advancement available. The ship is sinking quickly due to the incompetency of management. All the smart people have left the company within the past 2 years. The few bright people that have stayed behind are only there to wait for the green cards.
