Good work environment. No discernible opportunities for technical innovation. Managers manage too many people

Pros

I was able to telecommute, and that was a huge benefit.

(I can't imagine why anyone who isn't a recent college graduate would relocate for a job anymore.)

Cons

There was no actual innovation. Most of the technical discussions were about curly braces and indentation, bug triage, and arcane recipes for reproducing bugs. Some people enjoy the reassuring stability of doing similar things over and over again. Not me.

Advice to Management

Be very honest about the actual work that will be assigned. Don't bait and switch.
