Pros

Good Work-Life Balance Good Brand Still (but for how long?) Leader in Mobile Devices in terms of Market Share

Cons

Too much talk, too little action Too political in Market Slow! Slow! Slow! Decision making is like debate in a parliament You get promoted if your boss' in the reign, regardless of how incompetent you are (or maybe that's a Pros?)

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.
