Pros

Virtually all engineering documents, roadmaps, bug databases, etc are available to the ordinary engineer.

Cons

Pay is not connected to technical contribution. No performance review. AMD is weak in software areas. Engineers with zero years of coding experience often make technical decisions about a coding project. The blind lead the blind.
