Pros

Decent pay, engaging projects, and exposure to cutting-edge manufacturing technologies for developing next-gen products.

Cons

Continuously changing project/program priorities and timelines makes it difficult to understand what "the most important work" actually is.

Increasingly frequent layoffs and turnover.

Advice to Management

Be honest with your direct reports that stability and focus is unlikely in the near future. Staying flexible means being able to drop everything and completely re-pivot at any moment.
