Pros

Flexible schedule, interesting projects (if you can get into the group), good training courses offered (if manager allows), great career opportunities for early-career folks.

Cons

Low morale among coworkers, inconsistent skill level of first and second-level management, just-okay cafeteria, office decor from the 90s, limited reward for working harder than others, difficulty moving up in the company unless you are management, not a lot of incentive for mid- to late-career engineers to stick around.

Advice to Management

Spend more time helping the people you manage, not just the projects you manage.

Support employees should they wish to change groups, orgs, or self-nominate for a new project.

Be more knowledgeable about work outside your silo, as well as new upcoming projects.
