Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: former

It is no longer a growth company
Pros: Internal news groups, people from all over the world, lots of diverse pasttimes amongst employees
Cons: expected to be on email 24/7 and implied work on the weekends... good technical contributors don't necessarily make good managers but the way to advance is through managing. the architect program really pays lip service to the advancement of individual contributors
