Pros
  • Culture, great people, good local management.
  • A lot of interesting projects and opportunities to grow.
  • Dedicated financial reviews/services just downstairs for employees only.
Cons
  • Very, very, many levels of management mean decisions on projects are made slowly. Funding for teams/projects is given and pulled pretty sporadically, it seems.

  • Nobody except tech support has admin privileges, making it difficult to download software and set up environments as a developer.

Advice to Management

Put more power in local management and reduce the number of management levels.
