Pros

Good projects that challenge you technically.

Cons

Extremely poor management. Most of the managers in STTD are technically inept. People have won Achievement awards for technology that doesn't even work. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent on it.

One manager in particular is extremely loud and obnoxious and has the worst employee retention rate. If you are buddies with the senior management, then you are okay. I have seen employees that actually invented and implemented some really good technology being laid off because a few managers targeted them in the yearly review. If you are a new engineer, try to avoid this group. Senior managers use your work to gain recognition, and you don't get much in return.
