Pros

Great team of developers. The hiring process picks up good talent. The infrastructure, considering the size of the company, is great! A great balanced perspective on coding practices.

Cons

Big architectural/tooling decisions can be made without the input of smaller teams.

For example, what languages teams are encouraged or discouraged to continue using.

Advice to Management

Though making big changes to become greater is welcome, please be wary of changing the way successful teams, that are already making huge positive contributions, work.
