Pros

The management team was largely out of touch which meant there was little oversight of my day-to-day work. I was largely left to do what I wanted.

Cons

The lack of management oversight and management being out of touch with what was going left lack of recognition of how under-resourced the business was. I was expected to do the workload of ~3 to 4 people in other companies I have worked in. There was no work/life balance. Dealt with bullies in the workplace. Those bullies were untouchable because they had been with the company for so many years. There is very little opportunity for advancement. Internal candidates within the regulatory group were continually passed over for advancement opportunities.

Pros

Good work life balance, no micromanagement, decent pay and benefits for the job at hand, build rewarding relationships

Cons

Continuing to learn and being involved in newer and more advanced training is very limited, job can get very boring after a while, very hard to grow let alone get increased compensation after years of being an employee. The job sometimes feels very stagnant. You stop learning after a while.
