Pros

Excellent health benefits.

Interesting, challenging work.

Good pay.

Quite a lot of freedom on how to do the work.

Lots of training available - if one can find the time.

Cons

No such thing as work/life balance. Work trumps everything.

Far too much "it's not my team's job" from low/middle management.

All decisions are financial. Finance runs the company, not tech wizards, not Sales.

Advice to Management

Hire enough people to do the work. Too many long stretches on big projects without relief. Projects often overlap, making it impossible to use vacation time.
