Pros

Peers are helpful and nice Freedom to explore own method of working as there is no fixed structure

Cons

Management doesn't seem to take charge of work and it seems to be pushed down to the lower levels with minimal guidance Blame might be placed on employees despite the lack of guidance, should anything happen Lack of structured processes, lots of ambiguity
