Pros: Good benefits and flexible work schedule.

Cons: Typical corporate bureaucracy drama can be draining.

Pros: Great Benefits - 10% 401K match, affordable health insurance, lots of additional perks and benefits. The whole company shuts down from Christmas to New Year's, so you get 5 extra paid days off during holidays. Salaried employees are paid extra for working overtime.

Cons: Very bureaucratic. Software has three vertical lines of management (Software Managers, Chief Engineers, and Project Management), which each has 4-5 levels. This means there are 12-15 different all-hands meetings every quarter, where different and sometimes conflicting information is presented. Lots of red tape to get anything done. There are so many sources of information in various locations on shared drives and intranets. Much of it is outdated, but some of it is kept up to date. There's no real way to distinguish what the current policies or best practices are, as even management doesn't know where the latest information is coming from. Very little opportunity for growth and development. Positions end up being very specialized due to the size of the organization. You can easily wind up doing the same exact job for a decade.

Pros: Benefits and work location flexibility

Cons: Need to focus on the quality of the product, not so much on the cost.
