Pros

You can find a team and get lost, doing nothing, working from home. So practically they pay you to exists.

Cons

If you want a real career, avoid this old company: - Lack of innovation, so you will work on old Systems and procedures. - The longer you stay, the less you know. So you have the risk to get stuck - Salary way below the industry. Raises of 1% are the typical way to show appreciation for best engineers. - Promotions are scarce. - Moving many units to India. - Working with too many teams in India (meetings on the AM) - Company is divided into infinite groups - Dinosaur cemetery (at least in the US ) .
