Pros

There is quite a bit of flexibility in schedule as long as you get your work done. The pay scales are standard California pay.

Cons

This is a good ole boy network where no one gets promoted unless they know someone. Lots of VPs with no one reporting to them and very little to show for their title. The acquisitions are clearly driven by bean counters with no fundamental grasp of the business that the company was built on. Also this company has fallen prey to lawyer speak and blatant dishonesty out of some fear that law suits are lurking in every shadow... but so goes it for every publicly traded company. The share holders are the big losers. Idea of corporate governance is to put the foxes in charge of the chicken coup.

Pros

The co-workers at Emulex included informed, effective professionals who were friendly and collaborative. Good working conditions.

Cons

Most of what might be considered downsides were just SOP: changes, deadlines, far-flung information, but it kept us busy and productive.
