Pros

Few late nights and weekends. Lower management seems to understand that people are unhappy. Most lower management seems to want to improve the toxic environment.

Cons

It is a horrible environment. It is difficult to get work done with constant interruptions and 25% of your time spent doing paperwork. People are always in a bad mood and there is a lot of bickering and scapegoating.
