Cons

Unprofessional middle management.

New people are hired at a higher level while they are nowhere near a match for most of the senior engineers. In some cases, people with almost zero experience are hired at a similar or higher level than people with 10+ years of experience. That's how failed management makes existing employees seek other opportunities elsewhere.

Advice to Management

Hire down, pick the best to lead. Promote those who consistently deliver good results instead of "promoting" those who just joined.
