Pros

Free drinks, juice, soda, tea, coffee, etc., but no alcohol.

Food in the cafeteria is fairly inexpensive.

Everyone I worked with had a very high level of expertise.

Communication was pretty open.

Almost everyone in the group was very helpful to me as an intern.

The company works on cutting-edge stuff, and the work is challenging and fun.

Cons

My pay as an intern was on the low side, $20.50/hour plus 1.5X for overtime. This was the summer after I finished college, right before starting grad school.

It is sometimes a pain to do a teleconference with other engineers working in Irvine, CA.

Advice to Management

Senior management needs to cut the crap with executive pay.
