Slow and cumbersome practices that kill innovation

Pros

Management appears enthusiastic, and the company has successfully grown over a 5 year period.

Cons

Getting anything new accomplished, that is, anything not already understood and planned for, is an uphill battle, and involves so many people in the chain of decision making that innovation doesn't stand a chance here. Also this appears to be yet another company that can not see beyond quarterly results so can not sustain innovations even if they were planned. Look beyond the plastered on smiles here and moral seems low.
