Pros

Democratic corporate culture, development-driven (mostly) process, passionate people, nice offices and benefits, overall groovy attitude.

Cons

Big slack in most of the projects, average to poor middle management, poor career opportunities, below-average salaries, and evil-corporate-style fighting for resources (especially in minor products/projects).

Advice to Management

You have to do more with less. Don't tolerate slack and indifference. Keep departments and project teams more aligned and focused. Establish clear goals and track progress, celebrating victories and analyzing failures. There should be an explicit set of goals for every employee, as well as a clearly defined feedback loop that will clarify expectations set and met (if they were met).
