3.0
Pros
  • Pretty good benefits, although some have been going away.
  • Pay can be decent, but it can vary wildly between offers.
Cons
  • No T&E budget for on-sites or anything.
  • Horrible hardware given to engineers.
  • Poor documentation; often there's too much of it, and it's impossible to understand unless you ask the author.
  • Slow career growth.
  • Culture is poorly defined corporate word salad.
