Pros

Large company, lots of resources. Good salary, benefits. Lots of smart engineers.

Cons

Management is generally terrible. Your boss will most likely be a complete idiot. If you do software or electronics, don't work here. They haven't figured out how that fits into their businesses.

Pros

Good pay and decent benefits.

Cons

Current management is completely disconnected from the needs and concerns of individual contributors. Which appears to be on purpose, as the company is in an active strategy of both strategic layoffs and of driving attrition in general, so everyone's stress levels are super high. The head of HR just quit so I can only assume worse labor actions are on their way. Also, be ready to not have a desk but still be required to come in 4 days a week.
