Pros

Strong business model, excellent growth potential. Dedicated peers and colleagues. Fun, generous CEO.

Cons

C-level executives are astonishingly bad at management. Google them and you will find proof. Their personal lives bleed into their professional work. The CFO and CMO are married. The CFO also runs HR. All misbehavior from C-level personnel is ignored. No regard for human resources policies, protocols, career development. Employees are disillusioned. Morale is low, and good people are quitting by the day.

Pros

Benefits are good. Product pretty well known.

Cons

They cannot keep sales team staffed which is very telling.... Also lost lots of key engineers which makes quality of product suffer.. Suck ups promoted over top performers. Very passive aggressive culture instilled by management team. Starting to constrict the flexibility that was once one of the pros of working there.
