Pros

I worked in an engineering team that had some very talented people. I learned a lot from my experience there.

Cons

Overall compensation was not what it could have been.

Also, you need to take responsibility for your own career here. No one is going to hold your hand and make sure you get what's coming to you.

Advice to Management

Get someone in HR to do a survey of actual, real-world salary levels for different IT positions and then pay people according to those levels. Otherwise, be prepared for people to vote with their feet.
