Pros: One of the top and most influential high-tech firms in the world with prestige, good products/technology, and benefits.  It will continue to be a powerhouse and fierce competitor in the market.
Cons: Seems to be searching for its vision & mission.  Internal ranking system pits everyone against one another with high ranking individuals being well rewarded and low ranking individuals pressured to leave.  Ranking system is less objective and more of an art-form and resulting culture is very cutthroat and somewhat toxic.
