Pros

People I've worked with tend to be nice.

Cons

Multiple meetings about the same project with different project leaders. Some of my colleagues spend the majority of their time in Teams meetings that could be summed up in a group chat/email. Throwing money out the door with unused software and equipment. Inefficiencies everywhere you look. Left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing, very siloed. They talk a big game about all the advanced things they are doing but are literally not doing any of them. So much middle management nothing gets done. Promotes shadow IT because of draconian policies that do the opposite of securing the organization. Trying their best to outsource everything to unqualified vendors. Typical large bureaucracy that has lost it's way. Management doesn't care and doesn't want feedback.

Rigid application system combined with a black box application process.
