Pros

One can go for a long time with doing little to nothing and still be able to keep the job or even change jobs within the company. Work & Life balance is really respected. Most of the people, 90% of the work-force is out of the parking lot by 4:50pm.

Cons

Communication with employees and supervisors is unprofessional and futile since most of the time job duties are unclear. As a result, one finds it hard to keep oneself motivated and arguments are rampant. Year-end reviews don't mean anything for the employee's professional growth and career. Old buddy system is at work all the time.
