Pros

Good pay, great place to develop yourself and your career.

Cons

If you're lucky, your manager can be fine and treat you well. More likely, you will get a manager that doesn’t care about you at all and treats you like dirt. You are nothing to them but a means to an end.

Advice to Management

Hold middle managers to a higher standard, and put more weight on what ICs say about their direct leaders.

One bad leader overshadows all the good and spoils the entire organization.
