Lack of leadership, vision and strategy. Driven by sales and product politics.

Business Outlook

Pros

- You can easily float if that is what you want - Define your own focus areas - Work and learn things that are of your personal interest (within some boundaries)

Cons

- No growth opportunities, there is simply no concept for career progression - Lack of vision across leadership - Lack of a technical long-term strategy and consensus driven development - Driven by sales and product (and therefore politics)
