Pros

Loads of information, access to good articles, and environments where you can grow your knowledge.

Challenging people and staff to work with.

You will be pushed to do well, which sometimes helps to keep up to industry standards.

Strong brand name for any resume.

Push for patentable work.

Work from home option for all in Software Labs.

Cons

Very huge company, sometimes you might feel lost.

Benefits - need to negotiate a lot the first time you get in. Once in, growth of pay slows down.

Advice to Management

When appraising, the rating should be based on individual work and not teamwork. This means one person gets a good rating, then the other, even though they performed well, does not get a good rating.
