Pros
None. At least in my group.
Cons
HUGE disparity between groups and departments. Some groups literally work 80 hours a week. A lot of young engineers don't realize what that means when they interview. If you're a new engineer you'll be working second shift so that means working from 12pm - 4am, 5 days a week. Oh and don't expect to get any days off approved. You'll be working 16 hour days on Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Years, 4th of July, etc. Other groups work from 8am - 5pm with a 1.5 hour lunch. At 5:01 they're gone. A good rule of thumb is anything related to LED R&D or LED production is going to suck. Other groups are hit or miss.
