Keep your head down

Pros

If you become a liked individual you will be given preference for how you are treated. This includes work assigned, flex time, raises...etc.

Cons

Knowledge sharing is actively discouraged. Schedules are haphazardly defined. Some projects are way overstimated while others are way underestimated. Middle management tends to avoid issues until upper management deems there is a problem.

Pros

It was a good working environment, provided stability, sound judgment on business models and worked for the current business model

Cons

Lack of management involvement, not able to accurately see organizational structure, was a collage of faces and not enough involvement
