Good projects to work on. Management too demanding of employees without proper compensation

Pros

Work with intelligent people. Actual technology and development work is interesting.

Cons

The work assigned to teams is consistently and significantly more than the teams can produce in the given schedule. Items/scope are rarely traded off or out; the teams are just required to work more overtime to contain the work effort.

Advice to Management

Too much thrashing on work items for the teams reduces the actual time available for development to deliver the product. Everything can't be the highest priority and need to be delivered yesterday.
