Pros

The company is fairly stable, even in the current economic downturn.

Cons

Software development processes are lacking in many ways. Senior management often makes odd choices in tools to use and imposes them even when the majority of engineers object and offer better solutions. Likewise, suggestions about adjustments to processes are mostly ignored. The main problem seems to be that the first-line managers don't dare to bring the suggestions upward.

Advice to Management

Examine the performance of first-line managers, especially how much they listen to the senior engineer staff's recommendations.
