Pros

Working on exciting, advanced and complex designs with really smart people (and learning from them). Teamwork is promoted. Nice work environment and campus.

Cons

Too many products to do with not enough resources -- people and hardware. Agressive schedules have very little or no down time betwen product deliveries leading to burn-out, compromises and sloppy work. No time to try what-if ideas to improve product.
