Pros

Your colleagues will feel like an extension of your family, lunch is catered every day, and you can move up the ladder very fast.

Cons

Management has no idea what they are doing (this includes the director). Management tends to overwork anyone who shows initiative. The buddy system is how one gets promoted. Once in a support role, leaving support is almost impossible without quitting.

Advice to Management

Stop promoting your friends and open every management job with a rec and interview each candidate.

Allow people to grow their careers into other departments.
