Pros

working on the latest embedded processors; great benefits;

Cons

hardly any career advancement opportunity since TI is a matured company; most managers don't seem to care about your prospects; Not a great place for SW Engineers since TI is a chip company- if you want to develop sw join a compnay that uses TI chip to make a product.
