Business Outlook

Pros

Willingness of the company to try new things, take risks, and allow people to accomplish their objectives with minimal oversight is amazing.

Cons

A decent amount of time is spent reinventing the wheel / re-learning the same lesson (just in a slightly different context or program). This sometimes leads innovation and/or improvement, but just as often leads to headaches.
