Pros
  1. Good work-life balance.
  2. Culture and people are good.
  3. Benefits are decent.
Cons

The company lost the luster and brand it used to be once because of a lack of innovation and management. Management is not technical whatsoever, and most good employees left or were shown the door. There's hardly any innovation these days, as more processes and people come into the way.

The company became a sweatshop, surviving on legacy customers or old license deals.

Advice to Management

Hire based on talent and merit; stop nepotism. Don't let the few good people left leave.
