Not What I Expected
Pros: Team work; Freedom to drive your own development; "Give Back" opportunities on a global scale; Rewards & recognition;
Cons: 1. Too much 'management' responsibility given to 'team leads' which limits individual contributors from having the ability to take on career building opportunities since team leads tend to take on the prime projects.
2. Much effort put into hitting performance metrics when it comes to completing performance reviews instead of time spent assisting individuals with development.
