Bureaucracy, lots of jumping through hoops. Hurry up and wait. Lots of disorganization, turnover, union negotiations, strange management tactics and lack of direction.

Pros

The team in which you might work with might be as awesome as mine was.

Cons

Management typically lacks technical background to fill the roles to which they hold. Several are in place as political fills rather than true leaders in either personal or technical support.
