Pros

Promotes ownership and has a very fast-paced culture.

Cons

Lots of deadwood in the middle ranks who know how to game the system by colluding and playing politics with others. Especially true in the Amazon Traffic group in India.

Advice to Management

Get rid of stack ranking and penalize those senior leaders who are only there because of politics.
