Pros

My current team is good

Cons

Upper management is totally disconnected from the real needs and challenges of the teams doing the core work. There is a strong push for high performance, but without the modern tools, empathy, or strategies that enable people to thrive. They not ever listen, adapt or evolve, but say this is at their core values. They should learn the basic: A sustainable performance comes from a well-supported, heard and valued employees.

Pros

The people on the ground are (mostly) a joy to work alongside.

Cons

Progression paths are inconsistent and change quicker that you can get to the end of them. They're also heavily dependent on the team you join, and the existing ratios of roles. Strong push for AI when it's the people that make the real difference.
