Pros

It's hard to point out

Cons

The IT org is imploding with many competant leaders leaving over the last year. The leadership is trying hard to communicate that this is not due to poor retention, one of the 3 highest priorities is talent and they're failing. The roadmap does not seem well thought out. There's a high number of middle managers and not enough ICs. No raises or bonuses for years even though you're a high performer on paper. The corporate politics culture is extremely widespread, no work gets done unless you know people. Top IT leaders fail to speak with clarity and difficult to get behind the vision.

Pros

The company has strong business sense. When they smell an opportunity, they will fight to win the business, and they hunt for high profit margin projects. This ensures that the business is strong and lesser chances of retrenchment. It is a Koch company and Koch has strong corporate philosophy called Principles Based Management (PBM).

Cons

Nobody follows PBM, or management takes the short cut. This results in a lot of complications. 1) Too much challenging, too little doing on new technical areas resulting in declining competitive edge. 2) Everything is only a framework and suggestions. This leads to no definite way of execution. Too many discussions in a loop to decipher the "Frameworks". 3) Bonus and incentives are not guaranteed every year. Management undermines the work and says that it is within your salary. 4) No long-term planning because too focused on the immediate voice of customer.
