Pros

When I started, people treated each other as a family.

Cons

New management expects everyone to work twice as many hours on the promise that "someday things will return to normal", without any respect to the employee's time or life. Employer routinely lies to the customer, subcontractors, and employees. Management has created a toxic work environment with no incentive to work hard, but maintains power by being extremely retaliatory. Tis mindset led to some extremely short term gains, but eventually pushed out nearly all of the new talent in the software department for various reasons. Any new hire will be entering an impossible to succeed situation, with no ability or incentive to turn things around.
