Incompetent management! New graduates are becoming managers or leaders of departments and only know how to push pencils.

Pros

You get requested days off; benefits; stock options; sometimes freedom to work at own pace without anyone breathing down your neck.

Cons

Pay is below other companies; management has too many newbies that are messing up the company; no loyalty; too many new engineers in charge of large projects and they do not know what they are doing. Burning bridges with vendors.
