Pros

Great environment for engineers; most of the senior management are all engineers. The company is a top player in the field, so you get a good learning experience. Salary, stock, perks, etc. Generally, they treat the employees well with good HR policies. The company is doing a lot to promote work-life balance these days.

Cons

In a large organization, promotions may be a little hard, especially at senior titles, due to intense competition, as the company generally hires the best.

Sometimes, work pressure may get too much in certain groups, but it is generally cyclic.

Advice to Management

The new CEO is doing a great job.

For career growth, give more opportunities to existing employees, especially in moving from an engineer track to other areas. Generally, employees from outside get many coveted non-engineering jobs, even though they themselves come from engineering fields and often have less experience.
