Pros: It is a good overall company. It is solid and well known in the industry.

Cons: The decision may be political based on which teams you are in.

Pros: The company has an open door policy. Leaders are very welcoming with ideas for improvement. They provide venues for both technical, quality and process improvement initiative through technical symposium and quality symposium. People are getting rewards by plaque of recognition and monetary prices.

Cons: Organizational structure has several levels that slow down decision making.

Pros: There are still a lot of brilliant engineers at Analog. They are very good at minimizing layoffs and cut backs. The company has a very good 401(k).

Cons: Twenty years ago, Analog was the leader and other semis looked to what we were doing and imitated us. Now we are too scared to take calculated risks and be the leaders of the industry. We wait to see what everybody else is doing and get in line with them. (especially in regards to compensation) Not a lot of excitement. The type of personality that thrives at Analog is one that doesn't like change and just cares about getting a steady paycheck. They're willing to let their career be stagnant in exchange for that job security and steady paycheck.
