Pros

stable and boring work get a chance to work on middleware applications called embedded systems maintaining proprietary software

Cons

Very political setup and biased depending on mangers Does not even care about contractors working from service based companies on their projects. treats them like second class citizens. No real embedded work. Just middleware high level apps. Create a hype on interviews and treat new joiners like illiterates. Experienced people termed experts do not even know basics. Employees are worried about job security and make life horrible for new comers. Please ignore this organization. Dont be fooled by the pay package or intelligent interview questions. Try to recruit people from prestigious colleges and offer them crap work.

Pros

Advancement and benefits were good. PLenty of opportunity to look at new markets and participate in the sales and marketing of same.

Cons

Newly hired management has a tendency to replace mid level managers, regardless of past performance, so they "manufacture" reasons to get rid of them, buying them off with 4 month severance packages if they sign a release.
