Pros

One of the best work environments I have ever worked in. The team-building dynamic was really good most of the time. Young and senior generations of engineers merged and collided together, resulting in the design of great products.

Cons

Still very hierarchical in middle and upper management. They play by the book and are very conservative in jumping over the fence to explore new ways to design. That mindset was changing when I left, but there are no results to see yet. They behave politically correct, but not always with the right common sense.

Advice to Management

Apply the principle of integrity itself at all levels. The quality of execution is normally correlated with the level of motivation in the workforce, and true, pragmatic values speak more than a thousand words.
