Pros

- Quiet hallways (empty because everyone quit) - All people leaving provide more opportunity for them staying. - Come and go as you please - Fairly good work-life balance (not a lot of work to go around) - Cool-ish stuff to work on - New executive brought in want to make change for employees (although it's 1 vs 100).

Cons

- ~25% Layoff in 2012 by severance avoiding "Working notices" - Many good and senior people quits this year, many other laid off, leaving some few top performers (who probably quit next year) - Corporates are focused on shareholders not employee and it's showing (attrition is skyrocketed). - You're compensation is BAD and you should feel BAD. Go work elsewhere and you get a minimum 30% raise. - No flex time. - No bonuses (except for executives) - Annual salary increases (when they occur) is less than inflation. - MDA does not keep their employees happy. - Starting salary for Juniors is almost the same as it was 10 years ago (Inflation should make 35% higher).
