Business Outlook

Pros

Cutting edge technology and chips in many of the hottest products out on the market. Most people are friendly and care about what they do.

Cons

Hard to advance, and management is unforgiving. Always too much work to do, and always seemingly short on resources. Also vacation policy is horrible. Salaried workers get "unlimited vacations" but the caveat is your manager must approve of the time off. Great if you have a cool manager. Sucks if your manager is a workaholic and disapproves vacation requests most times.
