Pros

New leaders with outside expertise are modernizing. A stable company that has a focus on their people instead of just the numbers. Lots of opportunities to come in and make a splash if you have good experience to bring. Great work-life balance and autonomy.

Cons

Pay bands need to modernize, but if you get big wins, you get rewarded.
