Pros

None that come to mind.

Cons

Very unwelcoming and discouraging almost from day one. They expect you to know automatically exactly what they want, even though you are reporting to 3 different Managers, all of whom have their own ideas of how things should be run. What might be "right" one day is "wrong" the next. The attitude from management seems to be "do as I say, not as I do," as they frequently break their own rules and contradict their own directions. If you do exactly as instructed, you are told you aren't "taking charge" and if you try to "take charge", they micromanage the heck out of you. The entire system seems to be set up to ensure failure. No matter how hard you work or what you do, you're wrong every single time. Even when management fails to communicate or makes a mistake, they come back and "explain" to you why it's actually your fault. They have really taken scapegoating to a new level. Tons of discouragement and pretty much zero encouragement.
