Pros

Very good management. They treat the technical team with respect. They get the work done by giving enough for the developers to cope with. Managers Have the patience to have the developers try new things

Cons

Poor planning and execution. Need to take up new projects. Should not micro manage people. The existing projects needs to be re-structutred. Should be able to involve tech team in management meetings to get more insight on what can be done.
