Pros

Solid Pay: exceptionally smart engineers.

Cons

Business decisions can be absolutely ruthless on some teams. You'll see people crack from the pressure. Luckily, transfers are easy. Not all teams are created equal.

Advice to Management

Learn to pause your bias for action. Slower decisions can be better for customers and definitely better for your teams. Upper management needs to be more humane; stop driving people to their wits' end. You employ smart people; give them a moment to think, and they'll pay higher dividends.
