Pros
  • Good products when they came out, now technologically outpaced by open-source solutions.
  • Nice offices.
Cons
  • US centric
  • Nepotism; if you have important friends, you'll progress, otherwise good luck.
  • People promoted to managers because of their hard skills, not their leadership; a disaster.
