Good colleagues, but too much politics between groups
Good colleagues, but too much politics between groups
The work was often interesting, partly because the designs were technically challenging and the products were going to make a big impact in the market. The design tools were good, though not always the best. The rest of the design staff was of pretty high quality, as were the research groups. Pay was good for those with good reviews, very good for those doing well in senior engineering levels, but only so-so otherwise.
Groups in different parts of the world (and different parts of the US) have to collaborate often, and it's hard to keep trust between people who don't know each other.
Inter-group politics can be nasty. Sometimes the strategic decisions by top management were mystifying, but that's probably true in all large companies.
