Pros

Some teams really are top notch and a genuine pleasure to work with. Experts in their fields and darned clever problem solvers. Love working with these groups, no BS. Passionate about what they do and it shows!

Cons

I do not know how some groups in IT survive when it is 100% clear to any competent developer just how bad they are. No understanding of basics like object-oriented programming, recursive functions, etc. and entire projects' worth of unusable spaghetti code. Internal feedback? "Embarrassing." But somehow they are left to persist because the group leads are good at CYA.
