Pros
Hmmmm...give me a moment; I am sure I can think of one.
Cons
Every team I have interacted with is absolutely chaotic. Team leadership is non-existent: going dark and not even answering questions for weeks at a time, cancelling team meetings 9 times out of 10, and only communicating when something hits the fan. I have identified numerous issues: technical, process, and documentation-related, and have (tried) brought them to the attention of leadership, only to be told "yeah, it is garbage, but it is the way we have always done it". I have likewise seen fellow employees let go because they weren't "measuring up". This occurred after an abrupt change in the employee's role, with zero explanation, alignment to their skill sets, training, or support behind the change. I have even offered to train some of these before they were released, and was told "No, they should be able to pick it up as they go along". The thought that anyone would "pick up" the broken, undocumented, simply mind-numbingly poor processes is in my mind just laughable. The amount of tech debt the company adds with each new project is also simply astounding to me. Redundancies in code run into the thousands and thousands of lines (I recently found a number of processes that each literally call 5 subtasks and 185 lines of code to create the same 3 folders). Yet every attempt to bring this to the attention of those in charge is met with a shrug and a grimace - "yeah, we know, it is our template but no one has time to change it". It is just crazy to me that you bake something that bad into a template in the first place, and even more so that you acknowledge it is a problem but do nothing about it.
