Pros

Flexible work schedule Can work from home Salary is close to industry standard although could be a little higher

Cons

Line-managers are promoted based on who they know Mid-level managers hide from their staff Very little communication within departments and between departments No clear vision of where the company is going Executive management likes to changes horses mid-race; the end result is that nothing gets accomplished Promotions are based on favoritism There is no recognition for your effort and hard-work There is little difference in raises and bonus between top performers and slackers
