Pros

Still has some very talented engineers. Work/life balance is good.

Cons

- Very, very, very slow moving company that is overburdened by deadwood middle managers. - employees below VP level do not count and are treated as expendable - no loyalty...in fact long-term employees are considered high cost and there is often effort to replace them with younger "lower cost" new hires - wrong place for hard-charging ambitious people as it will drain your energy through negativity and being pulled down by the deadwood middle management

Pros

Extremely smart engineers in Oregon, generally has a decent culture, invincible brand name

Cons

Company profit isn't being reinvested into itself, parent company controls all profit. This can be seen in lack of NPIs.
