Pros

There are some good people there who are trying to achieve the best for the business but there are also a lot of people who are just covering themselves and pointing the finger when things don't go to plan.

Cons

Lots of projects all competing for the same resources and all trying to deliver to a predefined timeline regardless of the impact on the quality delivered.
