      Pros

      Great people doing the actual real work.

      Cons

      Way to many meetings! Middle management scrambling to figure out a direction. Platforms incapable of innovative improvement because of outdated and undocumented legacy code base. Upper product mgr is stalling innovation because of a NO mentality. Pivots happen often and derail projects and morality.

      Pros

      When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

      Cons

      Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
