Pros

Work-life balance. In most cases, decision-making was pushed down to the level where it mattered most. Resources needed to do the job were always made available. Frequent opportunity to interact with Sr. Mgmt. Sr. Mgmt. was very open to employee input.

Cons

HR at SCJ (like most companies) is a joke. They talk the game of being concerned about employees very well, but HR never actually walks the walk. Too many first-to-market opportunities are lost by too much emphasis on getting products to "perfection." Too many times, competitors have gotten to market first and locked up the biggest market share because SCJ was too busy pursuing a small potential point of superiority.
