Cons
However, the company self selects into type A personalities (aggressive, assertive, fast paced etc.). Management Board makes decisions in a discursive fashion where one aggressive Type A individual echoes and reaffirms the views of another Type A individual. If you are aggressive, outspoken, cut-throat, and "do what it takes" at all costs, you will chime with the tribe, and thrive. If you are soft-spoken, deep-thinking and sensitive (e.g. Type B) then you might find yourself being called a "naval gazer", "too relaxed" etc. Obviously this comes at a huge cost in terms of quality of output and interaction.
