Pros

- Good technology - Smart dev team

Cons

- Hiring Kenneth (Ken) Jakobsen as the Chief Revenue Officer was the biggest mistake. The guy is clueless when it comes to being a C-Level executive, let alone being responsibility for the companies revenue. He often times will just go on tangents based on some LinkedIn article he read that day. The only thing that he is good at playing his cards right and building rapport with fellow management. - He's made a few comments that have led other women to feel uncomfortable, but I'll leave that up to HR to handle.
