Cons
High stress, employees are over-tasked and management has very high expectations of employees. We are asked to do a very excessive number of things simultaneously. We are always being sidetracked from our main tasks. We are often obliged to work with systems and services that are half baked and that don't work, but it is company policy. Employees are left feeling very frustrated because they cannot make progress due to needing to use the required company solutions. It is basically very difficult to make any real progress due to their excessive number of rules and policies, which are often short sighted and do not work for half the company. This leaves employees feeling very unsatisfied with their work. Whenever something goes wrong, there is a very counter-productive blame game that goes on, where each manager blames the person beneath them until it all falls on the software engineers, and it is completely unfair.
