Pros

People are wonderful. I appreciate they understand that life happens and you are not expected to be there 8 am on the dot each morning. It is understood that as long as your work is done correctly and the client is happy it doesn't matter if you come in at 9:30.

Cons

It takes forever to get things done. Approval is needed on so many layers it really does not allow for one to make an educated decision to move forward and do their job. These days the going theme is doing less with more. One group can only be responsible for so much, layoffs is not the answer!
