Few levels of management before getting a final decision. Great teamwork and synergy. Really cool stuff and technologies to touch/try/use. Empowered to do what is necessary to get the job done. Very flexible environment - best I've ever worked in (especially for such a large company).

All about shipping great products. Very rarely will you work on something where you start a project and then have it never turn into anything real.
