Pros

It's a real challenge to get fired unless you do something really stupid.

Cons
  • Strict requirements on years of service for promotions
  • Uninspiring, stubborn, old-fashioned leadership
  • Endless political games between the decision-makers in the company
  • Having to work with people who put minimal effort into their jobs
Advice to Management

I wish leadership would follow modern software development practices. I also wish that the people who are in charge of software orgs at the company actually had software backgrounds.
