Pros

- lots of potential but sadly will not be realized till we change our ways of working...

Cons

-poor management who spends time debating intellectually instead of focusing on getting things done -management only focus on sexy headline instead of on what it takes to grow the business -too many priorities, too little resources -unclear structure, lots of rework -small group that actually works, large group that works on managing top management

Pros

Always busy with challenging work.

Cons

Office politics slows things down, seems like some of the work is about checking a box and not about really creating value or improved processes.
