Pros

Executive leadership is good. No limitation on what you can or cannot do.

Cons

middle management and VP don't speak up of their mind, Chaos in every function. People spend more time in fire drills than creative solutions. IT systems are extremely poor for operations and engineering. It does not help company at all.
