Pros

Peers made the job tolerable. Downtown location allowed for fun/casual walks on lunch breaks.

Cons

Managers put on more mandatory requirements (disclosures, change in SPIFF rules, doing other departments' job) without any understanding on how that takes away from the primary job function -thus making it more difficult to hit objectives.
