Pros

Good knowledge sharing, a good technical environment, and good relationships with peers.

Cons

Promotion opportunities are extremely limited. Opportunities for young engineers are almost non-existent.

Amazingly, a company with this much brain power promotes managers based on seniority and not performance nor knowledge. The promotion criteria are completely wrong.

Advice to Management

Promote using more objective criteria, not just VPs' proteges who don't know a thing.
