Pros

They invested a fortune in generic facilities available across departments, including automating service requests.

Cons

There is no way to get help from a human being when you're stuck. You need to be a developer, SA, DBA, HR, and a few other roles to get anything done, allocated, or built.

Managers don't enforce their own rules and let junior developers run amok, leading to constant rewriting and refactoring of code that doesn't support requirements.

Advice to Management

Enforce the project rules that YOU created in the first place.
