Pros

The people on my team were great, dedicated testers trying to do their best and really cared about doing the job well.

Cons

The processes for the SDLC were bloated and over complicated. I spent 70% of my time filling out documents and ticking boxes and 30% actually testing. Management cares more about filling out forms in triplicate and ticking boxes than the job of testing. It was a really toxic environment and I saw on more than one occasion someone was screamed at when a task was not done according to the standards.(Turned out in one case the employee did not know how to do it but was too embarrassed to ask for help)
