Cons

No real benefits; no stock options. The health plan is not that great.

Bonuses are not based on performance.

Too slow-paced.

Too much bureaucracy at all levels.

There is very little opportunity for new ideas and innovation.

Not recommended for young and talented people.

The environment can be toxic, given that the only reason to do things is for the purpose of being promoted.

Advice to Management

Management kills young developers' dreams, as they don't care about anything but their promotion.
