Pros
Mostly nice co-workers, some of whom are motivated
Cons
The CEO resents employees with original ideas
The COO refuses to communicate with staff, fearing a negative reaction (which is a self-fulfilling situation: you don't commmunicate, people start to dislike you, etc.)
If you're in "the club" of senior staff, you're generally OK and free to badmouth any employee who challenges you to think.
