Pros

The mission, although this may be fabricated given the Reuters article.

Cons

Know it all and fixed mindset of tenured but technically inexperienced individuals. Toxic culture that prioritizes the way it's always been done versus a culture that's progressive and open to change and experienced viewpoints.
