Cons

Management, management, and management.

Many lack diverse perspectives and sometimes engage in religious and/or gender-based discrimination. When tasks fail, developers are often blamed as scapegoats, rarely those who formed the teams or set the working agreements.

I’ve worked with both excellent and terrible managers, but unfortunately, the awful ones tend to last longer in this company.

Once a manager marks you negatively in their head, don't expect a promotion in your career ever again, and forget about technical trainings or company-paid certificates.

Advice to Management

Review your group managers.

Review their decisions. They are not the best; usually, they are awful.
