Pros

- Good competent colleagues - Innovations in work is possible - Company can make good profits by segmenting the formats clearly - Good facilities within the company. Freebies are still available when the economy is what it is now

Cons

- Innovations are not leveraged by the company - Improve the processes and regain the technology DNA within the company - Managers are not competent enough to un do the process heavy life cycle and adapt a agile life cycle for products - Too many meetings for people at all levels and seems the only way to communicate across group and across layers of hierarchy is by meeting
