Boot camp
Pros: A lot of cutting edge technology, smart people and good pay
Cons: Brutal management in NY, sweat shop mentality.  Highly political.  Managers are forced to push a certain percentage (pre-determined) of their employees into needs improvement, meets expectations etc at review time.   This makes no sense because it forces them to put good people into needs improvement in order to meet the breakdown.
Also the place is political as hell.  "Visibility" is a huge thing.  The place is crawling with ambitious cutthroats who will stab you in the back while smiling at you in meetings.  Avoid it if you can
