Pros

It was a paying job with benefits.

Cons

Too top heavy. I have never seen so many directors and VPs without staff. It's supposed to be lonely at the top. The problem with this ice cream cone (vs pyramid) structure is the company has to find ways to pay the bloated salaries and bonuses to all of these people. The result is people at the lower levels suffer with lower than market wages and benefits and no bonus opportunities even when the company is doing well. The result is the better people leave.
