Sun is big on work-life balance. The company is very friendly to employees and care about their needs. They have very flexible hours and the Iwork program allows you to work from home. It greatly contributes to the quality of your life. You're allowed to take time off if there're pressing matters or errands to run. As long as you get your share of work done the managers have no problem with that. The company pays very well if you compare for the same position and work in other companies in the Bay Area.
The company is very friendly to workers, but it doesn't mean you can just fool around. You still need to get the work done even if you're working from home. There's peer feedback and managers are evaluating you; you deliver results and then you're allowed to continue to enjoy the friendly environment and benefits. There're really good reasons to work for Sun. Doing good work, being a strong company doesn't mean you have to slave off your workers. Sun does a good job on that.
