Pros

Great team work, free gym use, agile methods (Scrum) make life easier and more stress-free. On the whole good people work there and they are ready to help you. Work life balance is good.

Cons

Some of the technologies are very old and hard to get rid of (such as ones used in old Telco devices). So do not expect the latest tech. Also the compensation package is behind of the competitors. Many talented people leave because of this.

Pros

Decent starting salary, good benefits, generous PTO

Cons

1% raises forever. Last promotion I got to Principal had no raise but a bump in bonus percentage. Now they are giving kids 8-12% raises and they have less than 5 yrs. Once you hit about 5 yrs you will get the 1% a yr and be pigeon holed into a specific job. Then good luck trying to change.
