Pros

The prestige of being with a company that is still out on the cutting edge, someplace that while fresh and exciting also has stability as a company. It may not be like the Wild Wild West days of the Valley at Apple, but it has moved into middle age more gracefully than some other companies have. They've done a good job of not throwing out all the perks as they aim for profitability, and the management team over the last decade seems not to have put a foot wrong in some time - if nothing else, the stock performance alone vouches for the the choices made.

Cons

The biggest problem comes if you're not in a group that is contributing directly to current projects. If you don't have the visibility, if your group is in some more pedestrian area like support or fulfillment, you won't get your share of resources or headcount. If you're not located on the Loop, and you're not turning out new product, be prepared to be an afterthought in the mind of the company at large. It's also extraordinarily difficult to move around within the organization; it almost seems easier to leave and come back than to apply internally for new positions in other groups.

Pros

Such an awesome place to work, its so much fun! Everyone works well as a team, and our customers love coming here. Its rewarding to be able to really help people see what they can do with technology.

Cons

The management can be messy, and unorganized. Many times, managers will talk about something, with a sense of urgency and importance, but that frequently doesn't happen. Many times managers will not follow through with what tey want to do in the store, and have horrible communication. Many days, two or three managers will all give me day long tasks, not realizing the other already has.
