Pros

Outstanding I/C technology.

Excellent co-workers, great cooperation within small groups. However, bad apples in other groups make meaningful collaboration simply impossible.

Cons

Extremely poor, politically motivated conflicts within middle management. Top-heavy management structure. Old boys' club.

Lower ranks (worker bees) are understaffed and severely overextended.

Advice to Management

Thin down upper management ranks and reorganize.
