Pros

Management is typically very rational and levelheaded. No off the hip responses to emergencies.

Cons

Below market compensation. Lousy benefits. Poor self-esteem generally amongst employees. Mixture of old school "cheap" hires also dilutes the mental edge in the working environment. Good for retirement.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
