Pros

Very challenging; lots of low-hanging fruit. Some mid-level management that is great, and leftover culture from Gates family is trying to hang on.

Cons

Difficult to get mid to upper management to listen to details; goals are conflicting at top levels and cause middle and lower level conflicts. Some push for projects that are costly and want them done fast; others push hard to reduce costs and don't care about timelines. Almost impossible to realize any positive feedback because mid to upper management tiers are engaged in a battle to the death.
