Pros

Projects are interesting and you get to help develop cutting edge technologies. Everyone working on the projects really knows their stuff and come from many different backgrounds which provides opportunities to work with all sorts of interesting people. It's a large corporation and has the ups and downs of one such as great benefits but also has a high amount of segregation between levels. The majority of the employees are engineers, a lot more than similar companies. Shared offices are better than cubicles.

Cons

The pay was decent but now it's no longer good. All sorts of new technologies and products are being created but it feels as if it has no impact on how well the company is doing. I feel as if I have no opportunity for growth or promotion. Work load will fluctuate between extreme highs and lows. No more free drinks, subsidized foods or free lunches.

Pros

exposure to emerging technologies, if you get into the right team at the right time the opportunities do exist learning to do a lot more with much less there are some very dedicated people at this company, mature and experienced, first line and middle management are very skilled technically the range of products this company produces could be enough to keep the right person busy for an entire lifespan

Cons

if you aren't clique, you're stuck, with poor career advancement programs, you can find yourself unable to succeed there is a contingent of non-technical upper management who are almost completely out of touch with the real and every day requirements of getting the products ready for the market small company mindset is a large problem, but the paranoia element is pervasive
