Pros

This was a great company that cared about it's people. We were all working towards one common goal. People collaborated and moved things forward.

Cons

Over the past 3-5 years the culture of this company went to hell. The entire company is floundering and misaligned on priorities. Leadership made decisions about what the organization should look like assuming that mid-level management can change their ways and work together to rewire. Basically they need to accept no for an answer. Yea - that's no happening and leadership is too chicken to step in and make some unpopular decisions
