Pros
Sadly, it is all gone.
Cons
If you are developer looking for a job where you can unfold your creative power and make an impact - you need a certain environment. Intrinsic motivation is an inseperable part of production- and learning processes. Intrinsic motivation is the kind of motivation, you as a creative developer and learner have by yourself - because the learning and working process itself is pleasant and in best case perceived as entertaining. Work is done, because it is fun! This means, you will need a new kind of leadership. Leaders that do not crush your intrinsic motiviation but know that your motivation is way more important than what they have to say. Leaders that want you to communicate bi-directional and participate to exchange information that define the rules. Well, these leaders have left or are layed off. If you are looking for a work environment, where your intrinsic motivation is valued more than the power of upper managers and investors: LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE!
