Pros

This place has a good mix of hardware/firmware and software. Even if you are not trying to actively learn about other technologies or areas of engineering, you will by the nature of the job. The work-life balance is very reasonable. I see people working putting in the whole range of hours, with some spending extra time because they want to and others putting in less because they get their work done.

Cons

The company has had a hard time being really competitive with pay. Pay is not everything, but it can't be discounted entirely. You can make enough to live a good life, but you may not be in the same boat as your friends.
