Pros

Work Life Balance. Great transportation to work.

Cons

Old technology. Management is not clear where to go Re-org every 6 months. 60% people are redundant with no or less work. All good people already left. Now 80% is Junk. Managers believe they are superior and they just do people management. Managers are highly non-technical and they don't want to do technical work. Layoffs has no reasons and favorites were saved while good folks let go.

Out of touch senior management, rotating through, problems making acquired technologies work. Sudden layoff purges when plugs are pulled or shifted to Indian office. EMC bureaucracy is slowly ossifiying processes while trying to "fix" things. Never considered for promotion.
