Pros

Coworkers loyal to each other despite corporate leadership.

Cons

Company keeps cutting benefits and perks. Employees are treated like they work at a manufacturing plant, not a software development shop. Morale, productivity and creativity are all tanking and the bean counters keep cutting.

Pros

Great work/life balance, reliable teamwork and support from management, opportunities for growth and exposure to new skills.

Cons

Coaching/overseeing a team in itself has a set of cons, which is what I primarily handle on a daily basis. This comes with any job, but you will have people on your team who need to improve on things such as lack of communication, lack of effort, no work ethic, and lack of skills. Motivating them can be difficult at times, and then you always seem to have a few who do things to avoid work. An accumulation of all these factors subsequently creates more, unnecessary, and redundant work for us. These types of people tend to eliminate themselves out over time due to poor performance and/or quit.
