Pros

High pay and "take one" titles available to just about anyone who asks for a senior title. We inherited through acquisition a music culture that spread to the entire company but little time to practice music nowadays. Good vacation if you survive long enough. Cool areas of technology.

Cons

Engineering culture has been trashed. Over the 2 year reign of the current CEO everything intangible that built this company is being dismantled. The business side has finally hit its stride but the technical side is feigning to support the business when it is actually crumbling. People who built the company were pushed out the door in many different manners and replaced by technical/cultural nincompoops. Other good people are openly looking for jobs elsewhere. The new culture cuts corners and imposes fear across the dev and test group. It is like the living dead in here.
