Pros

The usual that everybody says: Free lunches and snacks, Company events, Casual dress code,

Cons

1. Two Rounds of layoffs in the last 6 months. 2. Management's incompetence and desperation shows in the frequent org changes and change in directions. 3. No innovation. Absolutely none. Just copying features from their main competitors. 4. Promotions primarily based on being friends with the managers. Hard workers often get no glory. 5. The worst problem in my opinion is this : A lot of managers have no business being managers. They were made managers cause they were friends with their managers. They are immature, got no people skills, act rude, push people unnecessary, put people on spot and act just plain mean. They are the ones who are destroying the teams. So many people have left in recent months because of them. These people can get away with anything in this company. This makes employees super mad. 6. The best people working in IT are either gone are are planning to leave. 7. Other people have rightfully pointed out the project management nightmare. People who were secretaries have been made project managers. They have no management education or skills, no understanding of the engineering work and all they do is suck up to management and be mean to the staff. 8. Overall the company has become a nightmare. Employee morale is super low and it is reflected in the employee survey results.

Pros

Endless opportunities for the self-driven and ambitious. I was lucky enough to work under a single manager, David Weinrot, who entrusted me throughout my tenure to drive countless initiatives. He represents, for me, my time with the company. I still carry with me today much of what I learned wearing the many hats he provided access to across the company. Though demanding, he was a great partner in brainstorming new ideas, driving innovation and providing support when needed. This training provided me with the launchpad I needed to, after 5 years, move onto managing an organization with a budget of $120MM that leveraged all of the skills I learned under his direction.

Cons

The company as a whole, while I was there, had a lot going on. I am sure many things have changed since then, though I suspect success will hinge on comfort with agility and change, as with any modern company.
