Pros

Managers openly support balancing work and life with rhetoric and actions. They encourage employees to take care of issues at home before tackling work, as they know you are only as good as you are engaged. It is hard to be effectively engaged when a temporary personal matter requires focus.

Cons

It is very hard to get noticed unless you are "in" with a group. Managers do not actively seek what is going on in the front lines, waiting to notice who trumpets the loudest or who is most flashy. Some of the greatest work could be done with modesty.

Once that hurdle is mastered, it is easier to succeed with ease.

Advice to Management

Be proactive in seeking the best employees. The current mentality is to wait and see instead of trying to find that uncovered nugget. The squeaky wheel should not always get the grease (reward).
