Top of the company filled with MBAs
Pros: Work life balance, although they are now starting to require people to come to the office every day.
Cons: The top of this company has all MBAs or people with accounting background. No one at the top has technical expertise. As a result, there are tons of politics stemming. People get power not from knowledge, but rather from playing with people. My division director and manager has almost a decade long relationship, and that is why a lot of managers get to where they are, based on their relationships rather than technical expertise. In another case, my friend's manager and someone he hired were partners before in a startup, so no interview was required for that person to get in.

Therefore, it is a business organization. If you come from an engineering background or technical background, stay away.
