Svantaggi
Since they groom so many people fresh out of college, it is hard for an experienced hire to come in. There are so many employees that have never worked anywhere else, they lack the experience of different corporate cultures and methods. It is hard to introduce other ways of doing things (process, ideas, etc) as people seem to have a bit of not invented here syndrome. This is true for senior management as well--they haven't worked at other companies to have the internal leadership skills that are needed as a company grows. Reorganizations are handled horrifically because they've never had them. One major reorg took a good 8 months to actually happen because it was not well planned for and thought through and as a result multiple reorgs were needed to 'fix' what was broken.
