Pros

Good "work-life balance".

Cafeteria is subsidized and has a wide variety of choices.

Nice gym with a pool.

Cons

Low pay. Incompetent management. The company ruined good products they acquired through acquisitions. Full of unambitious people. Except for the database, it failed to build anything in-house. It grows through acquisitions. There are a lot of lifers. Just look at the faded badges worn by roaming zombies. Does not fire incompetent people. This could be a pro if you are incompetent yourself.
