Pros

Some good projects going on, opportunity to learn and build on your knowledge if in good projects otherwise some really boring projects also running.

Cons

Very bad pay- one has to be extremely lucky to strike somewhat satisfactory deal, chances of growth very limited, Management has openly declared Singapore office as a low cost center, carefree attitude towards employees, huge pay imbalances.

Pros

The environment of the workplace is casual and majority of the team are generally supportive and willing to help when it gets to the nitty gritty of work. Interesting projects to work on that typically are about a year long. Requesting time off is not difficult. Work offers garage parking - a nice bonus in the snowy Chicagoland area and there is shuttle service available to ride trains.

Cons

Salary is not competitive. No defined career ladder or room for growth in the engineering dept. Deliverables are often tight schedule. Software quality processes are too focused on numbers, which does not necessarily reflect the quality of the software, but will impact schedules because of "paperwork".
