Pros

Get the opportunity to work on really cool and visible projects, together with great engineers and designers.

Cons

Ambitious managers with not much technical background, low integrity, and lots of politics.

Advice to Management

Do your research on who you promote. If more than X (X>5?) people leave a team in a year, do not promote the manager. Also, provide new managers with training so they can perform better and lead teams according to stated values. Do not let people play politics and increase transparency in decision-making.
