Pros

Cons

- Innovations are not leveraged by the company
- Improve the processes and regain the technology DNA within the company
- Managers are not competent enough to un do the process heavy life cycle and adapt a agile life cycle for products
- Too many meetings for people at all levels and seems the only way to communicate across group and across layers of hierarchy is by meeting
