Pros

* Customer obsession. * If you're smart to not get trapped in the politics of the "bureaucratic middle", you can find a lot of agency for building and delivering valuable products.

Cons

* A lot of of SOP make prototyping harder than it should be, but it's usually there for good reasons. * DEI culture creates pockets of adolescent mentality adults, sometimes feeling you've stepped into a kindergarten or mental clinic, but it's not near as bad as the big ones (and little ones) from SF.
