Pros

Engineers expected to know or become well versed in many different areas of expertise. Some ability to work on/move to other projects of personal interest.

Cons

Weak management, lack of clear goals. High level of integration engineering versus actual R&D. Engineers expected to market rather than focus on technical challenges.
