Pros

Getting to work on a wide variety of problems with plenty of opportunity to learn a lot from some really smart people.

Cons

Very top-heavy. Decisions are made at high levels with the goal of "long-term customer satisfaction," often resulting in losing market share.

It has become increasingly difficult to have sustained growth just by doing great quality work.

Advice to Management

This is the age of Facebook. We really got to try fast and fail fast.
