Pros

The benefits are very good. Great people to work with.

Cons

The proprietary language is disgusting, and it's not used anywhere else.

It's a waste of time, energy, and brain cells.

Too heavy management, which adds overhead to the developers under them.

Too much hierarchy in management, which is not needed nowadays.

There should actually be a somewhat flat structure where everybody produces.

People are smart enough to manage themselves and their work.

Use your knowledge and skills in building something, not to poke into and give suggestions of what to do.

Advice to Management

Don't need management. Period.
