Pros

Compensation and benefits are decent.

Cons

There are too many silos and a lack of communication between teams, while at the same time keeping way too many useless meetings. It is hard to make changes, and people are not open to listen to new ideas. There is lots of internal politics and unhealthy competition between teams and locations. In many cases, this yields duplicated solutions and efforts.

Advice to Management

Streamline your processes.

Look for ways to avoid siloed structures.
