Stands for great things, but is an immovable object
Pros: I work from home, and I greatly appreciate the time and money it saves me. I don't commute, I don't eat out, I don't incure huge clothing bills or dry cleaning expenses. I also love the flexibility - I can work from anywhere, so I get to travel a lot. I just work during the days and have my nights and weekends to visit with friends and family or sightsee in a new place.. Also, for those who have been around awhile, we get plenty of vacation (I have 4 weeks now and will get 5 weeks shortly).
Cons: "Browbeating" is still the classic managerial style. There is a lack of leadership and creativity in management, even though the matrixed nature of the organization really calls for it.
