Pros

Benefits are the best in San Diego, especially the health benefits. Other benefits like stocks, cash bonuses, ESPP, 401k, life insurance, vendor discounts, and many more make this company a competitive employer.

The engineering culture is good but can be stressful due to deadlines.

Cons

Can be political. Watch out for HR guys; they are not there to help you. Their job is to look out for the company only. Negotiate well with them. Future prospects for growth are questionable, so the company is tightening its belt.
