Pros

Excellent crew of research engineers!

Cons

Eliminated research recently in order to save short-time cost while imposing huge loss in the future. Upper management has no understanding of technology, middle and lower management only concern about their own benefits, but claim all the credits. Hard working employees are under recognized or rewarded. No viable technology to enable growth in HDD business.
