      Pros

      H-1B, get GC very quick, and it is good place to apply green card, and company pay all the application fee. No other reason to work for this company. The orgnization of this company is very bad. The people spent 30% time on begging support from IT, and IT department in Fremont abuses their power without any limitation since them direct report to lake forest headquater.

      Cons

      too much office politics, and tough working environment. You can go to western digital if you want to accelate your aging. Almost every engineer has white hair. !!!!

      Pros

      - The company itself is doing well financially, allowing departments to take on bigger projects - Great work-life balance culture and unlimited PTO that actually allows for generate usage - Casual culture that encourages collaboration - Non-salary benefits are strong, with even lower-level employees benefiting from the stock purchase plan

      Cons

      - Despite its strong position, the company does trim headcount for the sake of efficiency - Work ethic seems complacent, but is offset by company's strong financial standing - Management can be cut-throat, but strong performers usually do well - Salaries are below market rate
