Pros

A chance to work on products that have actual impact on real people's lives Some really clever engineers to work with. Very good benefits

Cons

A company driven by business and marketing. Leads to near term thinking (next few quarters) and limited understanding of what it takes to really build excellent products. This has worked out well for many years, but deferred maintenance (on both current products and investing in future vision) may finally be catching up to the business. Poor product and technical vision, but endless (and increasing) politics and wearying "rah-rah" marketing-speak. Salaries are just okay and very poor stock incentive. Much work moving off shore...expect that to continue.

Pros

Benefits are amazing, medical insurance, vision and dental. Company match on 401K and volunteer time off.

Cons

They keep making decisions to outsource jobs to contract workers who don't share the same value in training or customer care. Oh they say they do but when you catch the listening to music so loud you can't hear the customer, or literally snoring on the line they can't do anything because of the way the contracts are set up. It is up to the contract company and the contract company just needs warm bodies. They did not even supply enough people doing our busiest season this year to co or the shifts that were required in the contract. So good luck with that. They will always eventually lay you off.
