Pros

There was great WLB. The salary was good, but not the best.

Cons

Lots of internal politics makes it hard to make a real impact.

Advice to Management

Ease up on the reorgs. Not every new senior manager has to prove himself worthy by changing the organization without it making actual sense product-wise.
