Pros

they used to be able to recruit good talent (though the good ones left in 2023 and their reputation is suffering as a result)

Cons

lack of opportunity for upward mobility diversity suffers: few women in leadership, even in non-technical orgs lack of leadership and product vision/ execution strong incentives for back-channeling and disincentives for collaboration benefits removed, compensation cuts via endless reorgs
