Pros
The Pros are all historical. Worked with some of the most talented Engineers in the world. Gained a wealth of experience. Pay was good, time off and ability to set your own schedule was phenomenal. Retirement benefits used to be top-notch. We were a family. Being a Motorolan was a badge of honor as an Engineer.
Cons
Our "visionary" CEO is trying to turn one of the greatest American communications hardware companies into a software and services company. Extremely sad to watch what used to be a legendary brand slowly split up, sold off, shut down, and forced to be something it is not by the Board of Directors, activist investors, and Wall Street. Innovation here is dead.
