Pros

Improving culture. Plenty of funds for improvement. Getting rid of toxicity in the workplace. Training available but you have to work for it. Good complexity for engineering concepts.

Cons

Certain departments seem rather worthless. Some toxic/lazy elements at the workplace or still present and impact others.
