Pros

Arc'teryx throws a good party.

Cons

Management flaws cross departments. Communication barriers across departments prove to make daily tasks/ overall work life very difficult. Department as a whole is underpaid and lacks funding. Job description does not match current work load. No compensation or benefits for increased work load in relation to "Lean" production. Little scheduling to aid department in meeting goals/ deadlines. Very little opportunity for growth within current department. Innovation slipping. Resistance to change from upper management. Resistance from design to create product optimum for production. Cutting corners towards "Lean" production without focusing on "Lean" design.
