Pros

Good work/life balance. That's about it.

Cons

New management is focused on cronyism and hierarchy. Patronizing and bullying personalities hired directly into leadership roles. Process over productivity. Lead engineers love meetings even more than they love themselves. Sales team seems unable to find it's feet despite clear utility of product. Older, out-of-date programming frameworks are replacing modern ones due to managerial fear of the unknown.
