Pros

I worked in some really good groups that were flexible and fun. It was always gratifying when something you worked on became a product.

Cons

There are some really soul-numbing positions as well, where you are required to do repetitive tasks. Also, politics can be really bad in some areas. Groups can get really territorial!

Advice to Management

They should have never touched the base salary of employees during layoffs. There are a gazillion kinds of bonuses and stock options. Hit those first. I always understood that bonuses and stock were contingent, but salary was sacrosanct.
