Pros

WFH and other benefits are good.

Cons

WLB is not there. There is constant pressure and fear of being laid off. Managers are not competent to guide and defend their team when needed.

Advice to Management

Do your job efficiently. If not, leave or hire someone who does. Because of incompetent managers, teams have to suffer.
