Great Company, Great Benefits, Not So Good Separation
Pros: One of the world's most recognizable brands, and an excellent company for many to work for.  Overall, I think the company is on-mission, and will over a few years become a solely consumer electronics and entertainment company, abandoning computers altogether.
Cons: Insensitive HR practices surrounding a "forced" relocation from home-office based to Austin-based position.  There is no reason my job function could not continue to be home office based - I did that for five years.  But when my boss transferred from his home office in Delaware to Austin, he insisted I go with him.  Very poor explanation of why, what the business driver was for the huge change, what the benefit would be to me and my career, and most of all, a totally crappy, inadequate relocation offer.
