Pros

Cutting-edge technology. Robust infrastructure for development, code, review, and the deployment process.

Cons

Leadership does not place a high value on respecting employees.

It is often heard that the top-level director of my organization yells and even curses at lower-level employees.

Also, it is not uncommon for an employee to be on the "in trouble and needs to improve" list and not be told.

Advice to Management

More transparency with employees. Demand respectful communication with employees, even from "high producers."
