Pros

still quite fun since it allows teams to run more independently with clear ownership and reasonable autonomy.

Cons

some teams and some work becomes uninteresting, because of the pursuit of keeping things run better rather than inventing new ways to do the same thing or new things to do. management can easily become boring and impersonal when the managers are incapable or uninterested in making real positive changes and take some risks. many middle-tier managers should be fired or demoted for that reason.
