Pros

Not sure what is good here.

Cons

Management can definitely be improved. Not all but a lot of them need to have their ears pulled.

It appears that they demote engineers but protect the managers. I found myself asking why this 'marketing' person is an engineering manager. How did this happen? Well, with no technical foresight, it is the blind leading the blind.

Overworked group. I had a co-worker pass away due to too much work.

Advice to Management

It is time to do something about the management. There are some good ones, but a lot of bad ones.
