Pros
It was an interesting place to work at. They fostered growth and peer / team work. New challenges always popping up which kept things interesting.
Cons
Although there was team work, there was also lots in politics to deal with, people trying to position themselves over others to get ahead, etc.
Advice to Senior Management
Keep the politics to a minimum. Try to recognize achievements without showing favoritism and keeping people as "the chosen ones". Spread the recognition to many people on the team.
