Pros

Striving creativity, everyone is allowed to speak their mind, evetyone is empowered, so much so that decisions getdelayed due to contention

Cons

small fry in a giant org - impact remains limited until you reach a fairly high rank in the org.

there are no downside...it is a best place to be in. Only thing would be that things are already mature...you dont get enough things to decide to do it your own way
