Pros

They were one of the coolest companies in the world for 70 years!! Innovations galore.. I was proud to work for them.

Cons

Motorola was an amazing company when we build "Hardware" but since they have tried to turn themselves into a software company, they have lost their way. The way of life there now is layoffs.. It's sad because they were one of the great companies of the 20th century. If you get a job there.. it will always be in danger of losing it.. I was there 22 years but I moved around alot..

Pros

There used to be good reasons to work at motorola, maybe back in the early 90's. They were growing, had a diverse product and solution portfolio, and you could even achieve some amount of professional success.

Cons

Lately, there is nothing to be happy about at motorola. For the past ten years, all they have done is lay off wave after wave after wave after wave of good people. Tens of thousands of people's lives negatively impacted. Morale is at an all time low, and people don't get any work done because they spend the majority of their time looking over their shoulder waiting to be the next one to get laid off.

Pros

The benefits were decent. Some product lines were best in class and interesting to work in. Facilities were good.

Cons

R&D slashed constantly. Management more interested in finance and divestitures than sales or operations. No long term strategy apparent besides getting sold and cashing out.
