Pros

Good pay, work-life balance, a reasonable amount of stock, and generally competent and helpful coworkers.

Cons

Entrenched rest and vest culture in my organization.

Lack of investment in shared tools, documentation, and playbooks on my team.

Advice to Management

Invest more in the education and refinement of your talent. Impactful practices should be sought out and shared, instead of relying on employees to intuitively navigate in a technical environment with complexity and depth in every direction.
