Pros

Lots of freedom for creative and skilled IT professionals working on various projects, room for advancement and training. Working from home. Good work-life balance.

Cons

Confused business and project managers with little or no directions given to developers straggling with constantly changing requirements. Very hard to get job done often with lots of frustration, taking way much longer time than needed. Lots of incompetent bureaucrats and ever expanding bureaucracy. Slow in accepting new technologies.

Pros

Work Day Flexibility Infrequent office visits - 4x a month fairly decent pay

Cons

- Promotions very difficult - attractive positions already earmarked for internal candidates prior to posting the req - high probability of pigeonholing - org is extremely reactive and tends to ignore suggestions until something becomes a problem - highly unorganized - very difficult to get answers or solve problems due to ambiguity in ownership of responsibilities/roles - unfair distribution of support across BU's - lack of organization tends to cause unnecessary stress - you need to have strong boundaries otherwise work/life balance can become non-existent
