Pros
Pay A few good people to make up for all the crazies
Cons
Unrealistic workloads, majorly understaffed, lots of burnout Leadership lacking - finger pointing between leaders, endless shifting priorities, chasing metrics for optics rather than actual benefit to the business Everyone for themselves - very little camaraderie between teams, lots of favoritism to a handful of "yes men" Development - lots of "experienced" middle management being hired, front line managers have it the worst dealing with unrealistic leadership expectations Consistently bad hiring because of a refusal to admit this is a difficult place to work and being honest with new hires on the support/resources they'll have (aka none) and the challenges of this culture/way of working
