Good company, but the hardware group is not the place to be. It seems that they want to be a service or software company

Flexible schedule. Management does not micromanage (this may depend on the manager). Good 401K matching, except that they now give it at the end of the year. You lose it if you leave or are let go before the end of the year. Lots of smart people.
Salary is below what the market pays.
Raises and bonuses are very low.
People have low morale.
Lower management has little to no control over compensation. All the decisions are made further up the chain.

I was very professional, but that was based on how much research and preparation I had done beforehand, which set me up to do well. Some of the questions asked were easy to answer if you had done a little research and preparation beforehand.

They asked me questions regarding FSM. It was fine. The interviewer gives you enough time to think, so try to answer every question very clearly. Don't hesitate, don't panic. Keep your concepts crystal clear.
