Pros

Benefits and compensation are great. Long-term employees always see that. Exciting opportunities and work are always challenging, but that depends on what you're working on. The cafeteria is not bad, and in some buildings, it's awesome. It's an old campus, so expect some facilities to be aging. Nevertheless, it's really a Great Place To Work, as long as you have a great manager.

Cons

It's not for everyone.

And the way the company is structured, you always fall into the trap of only knowing the thing you're working in and lack the bigger picture point of view. The hiring process can be too lenient, so expect to have incompetent people or people with poor teamwork spirit joining you.

Some managers can be too aggressive, but I guess that's a good thing, else some of the Gen-Y will never learn.

Advice to Management

Keep it up.
