The only good thing for lateral joiners is the compensation if negotiated well.

Dislikes

Everything! The micromanagement, poor treatment of employees, toxic clients, toxic policies, no scope for growth. Was told can work from home 3 days a week but forced to come to office. Laid off just because the client didn't like the way we work. Why hire in the first place if you only want to fire in 6 months?

Dislikes

If you remain too good on a domain, likely you will get trapped into it and not allowed to learn horizontal skills. So keeping a balance and relationship to horizontal people are important in any large project centric organization.

...nsfer, incentives etc. Where employee will claims money for their official work. Only leadership people are enjoying their life with greater salary package and their earnings. Current CEO is taking more pkg but gives very poor hike to employee like 1-2%. Market is poor for junior level employee but leadership are enjoying.
