Pros

Great benefits, great products to work on, and lots of learning can happen. It's a fast-paced, results-oriented environment, so you definitely get experience with different designs. I've been working there about a year and have worked on a handful of designs already. The products are very cutting-edge, and you will be designing hardware/software possibly up to a year before they are available to the consumer. The benefits cover you and your dependents for medical, dental, and vision. They have gyms at work, as well as dentists and a medical center at work. There are fitness classes, on-campus fairs and concerts, as well as tennis, volleyball, and basketball courts.

Cons

Appreciation is not always there. Often, you work extra hours or do extra work without appreciation or compensation.

Advice to Management

Pull harder for better compensation for employees.
