Pros

Pleasant atmosphere. Good benefits. Interesting work.

Cons

Management must be drawn from the pool of engineers. Not enough are competent. However, engineers hate non-engineer managers. Women and minorities are rarely promoted into management.

Advice to Management

The good-old-white-boy system still rules in promotions to management. The ~20% of the engineers that are from Asia need to be integrated into the company. Women engineers are routinely given clerical work because there is not enough clerical support, and of course, they are seen first as "women."
