Complete organizational nightmare — workflows that don't exist
Pros
Great place if you really enjoy making decisions in a vacuum. You'll become a master of improvisation.
Cons
The biggest problem is that nothing — and I mean nothing — is actually documented or standardized, which sounds minor until you realize nobody knows who's supposed to be doing what on any given project. Tasks get reassigned halfway through without anyone telling you, deadlines shift around based on whoever yelled loudest that week, and there's this weird situation where five different people think they're leading the same project so you end up redoing work constantly. Everyone's in their own silo, nothing feeds into anything else, and by the time you finish something, the entire scope has changed because there was no process to actually communicate changes. You spend more time trying to figure out what's actually happening than doing the actual work. There's no visibility, no structure, nothing. It's exhausting and it breeds chaos at every level.
