Pros

Decent benefits, many incredibly smart people. Get to work on the cutting edge of high-end computer systems. Good place to start a career.

Cons

Constant decline of benefits (except for upper management). Constant layoffs. Work being sent to India, so you liaison with a team there constantly. If you work on a cutting-edge processor chip that is being hotly pursued by management, you are treated like a king with perks. Everyone else involved with the product is made to feel inferior, with no perks and extremely crunched deadlines.

Advice to Management

none.
