Proceed Cautiously
Pros: Stable company.  Top level management appears to be leading the company in the right direction.  But this is wait and see.
Cons: Current hiring freeze.  They are not replacing people who have left.  Puts more stress on current employees.  Senior management does not seem to care.  "Do more with less" attitude.  They recognize the wrong employees when others have bled their heart and soul into projects.  At times, direct managers treat their employees like they work at McDonalds.  Tons of "pissing matches" between groups in the same organization.  They outsource almost everything which causes a huge language barrier between off-shore and their U.S. employees.  Senior management allows managers reporting to them to perform badly too long before doing anything about it.
