Pros

Wonderful learning opportunities Supersonic paced Free goodies :)

Cons

just terrible work-life balance. Expect to work 15 hrs a day even on weekends and during vacation. Compensation is so-so for the amount of work you do.. forget your evenings as you will be on China calls.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
