Pros

The culture within the company embraces innovation. The scientists are open to hearing ideas, and the company rarely lays off its research teams.

Cons

The benefits are poor, the research centers emphasize that only the PhD's opinions matter, and the only way to transfer an idea from being heard to being accepted is to ask a PhD to support the concept.
