      Pros

      Good relations with my direct line manager

      Cons

      No one seemed to know what the company goals were. Meetings were fraught with bad-mouthing corporate and shooting sarcasm at upper management. People actually spent time on company hours looking for other job options and were not shy about it. Whenever someone got a new job, people lined up their cubby to ask for inside recommendations on the new job.

      Pros

      small departments that work efficiently with others

      Be careful what you say about others because everyone knows each other.
