Pros

They are one of the oldest Silicon Valley companies. But even so, they spend a lot of their money on R&D. Good benefits, not top dog, but still good. Fighter attitude. Others have already faded, but they are still there.

Cons

They do not really believe in telecommuting, even if you do not have to be onsite. Older employees are at risk of getting canned. They tend to run acquisitions into the ground, so my advice, if you are acquired, is to try to get a job inside the parent company.

Advice to Management

Let's make acquisitions profitable. Increase creative culture. As a high-tech company, we should have the intelligence to plan our layoffs better.
