      Pros

      Principal has a great work environment with great people working in it. And the renovated office spaces are very conducive for collaboration.

      Cons

      The atmosphere can change from department to department. I had a very open and collaborative team, but I know not all teams are that way. They are also a little slow in adopting agile.
