Pros

Performance reviewed annually, naming recognition.

Cons

Huge pressure to deliver projects in impossible deadlines, with senior SDMs refusing to review calendars even when SDEs quit without plans to replace them. It's not uncommon to have SDEs working nights and weekends, including senior engineers.
