Pros
Decision making is pushed down to the lowest level that makes sense; this gives you the ability to have a big impact. You are expected to speak up if you disagree with a decision or direction, and the discussion/debate will be focused around facts and data, not the seniority of the person speaking. Once the decision is made, everyone is expected to get on board, having had the chance to voice their opinion.
Cons
Since there is very little top down decision-making, there is sometimes confusion about which projects have higher priority than other projects, which sometimes makes it difficult to determine which projects will get attention when resources are constrained.
