Very professional. Very efficient. Very exciting. Very rewarding. Good fun and nice people to work with.

Expectations of management on new employees to come up to speed in very demanding high tech rolls in a very short period of time is unrealistic!

Pros

Pay and benefits are good if not great compared to other companies. Opportunity to travel the world and get involved in future product development and strategy.

Cons

Very bureaucratic and process oriented...too big of a company for me. Promotions are very political and less to do with ability.
