Vantaggi
Little hassles. Perks are better than many, including the impending new owner. Good adoption of the trial-period employment practice. Pay is OK.
Svantaggi
Some projects have diffuse responsibility. Siloed departments with too much duplication. Factory-overseer micromanagement mentality. Too much ad-hoc everything. Disparate tools used even in the same department leads to duplication of effort. Ridiculously strict maintenance schedule makes everything take too long. No advancement for mid and senior technical staff. Favoritism. HR does well in general with surveys and the like, but falls down in handling specific issues. You must be both an academic and into "geek chic" to stomach the place. Loads of intellectual-bully juveniles given overly-long play on their leashes.
