Pros

The framework is very mature, so it is very handy to work on development tasks.

Cons

They blame on you when it's not your fault. So you need to push other team members or people that are not part of the team to complete their work, which is nasty. They don't do Agile. There are no project managers. People are working on the same tasks; it's a mess.

Tasks have no description, scope, or acceptance criteria. So what they do is open lots of Slack threads with huge and endless discussions, and they blame on you if you cannot complete the work. But in the meantime, those discussions lead you to have to change the code many times.

Advice to Management

Developers have to develop, not do manager tasks.
