Pros

Growing firm in a good space. Diverse partner background

Cons

Too much Partner and company politics that trickles down and affects all levels. No focus on junior development or experience. Partners barely in office and out of touch. No solid investing philosophy. Seems like firm is just trying to get into brand name tech deals to lift firm brand. Due to multiple members leaving due to politics, they promote people who stay even if incompetent. Could work on diversity
