Pros
- Intelligent, considerate, and interesting co-workers - We make products that contribute significantly to furthering science and technology - A lot of encouragement and support for having a healthy home-work life balance - Lots of great benefits - Core values I feel good about supporting - A lot of opportunities to have a good laugh, and sometimes a meal, with my co-workers
Cons
- We have a very strong internal culture: if you don't fit with it, you'll probably end up leaving quickly - Change is slow: learning to wait was hard at first, but I've come to appreciate it, because I feel like I have space to take the time to do things thoroughly. It can still be frustrating at times, but on balance it is probably wise in most cases. - Being required to move my office so often - Working on non-Windows OS's can often be frustrating: the internal systems really aren't designed for it
