Different views on future priorities, and communicating this as well to the outside world. Innovations not being used for a longer time, and end up as a follower instead of leader within certain areas.

Pros

People around are nice. Multi-culture environments. Environmentally friends. Benefits are comparable to other similar hi-tech companies

Cons

a bit low efficiency in decision making. Compensations are not related to performance tightly. innovation usually is not the top priority. "keeping current status running" usually is.
