Pros

Eventually I think the company will attract and keep good talent. There are a few great people.

Cons

Contempt under a facade of "feedback" is used. "Confidential" discussions are disclosed and discussed under the guise of team building. The use of micromanagement, bias based leadership, and favoritism is concerning.
