Pros

It's a global company so if you want to travel with work there is plenty of opportunity. There are also some great people left there to work with, but getting less and less each month, the good people don't stay.

Cons

Chaotic Senior Management team unable to deliver anything due to miscommunication, massive ego's and infighting between divisions. Trying to scale agile development without managing to get small scale agile development right first. Endless consultants and agencies brought in to make up for the obvious lack of strategy from anyone in the SMT

Pros

A family-owned business that was very successful at one point.

Cons

*Personnel: The same personnel retain their roles year-in and year-out which has led to poor decision-making, lack of new ideas and innovation and an overall stagnated work force. *Product: Since it's privately-owned, there are only minor investments made which pale in comparison to the competitors. In addition, new product and innovation suffer greatly. There hasn't been a new, revenue-generating product in years. *Compensation: every year commission and bonus changed especially with declining commercial performance (mostly tied to lack of investment in technology and product).  *Leadership: during my 4-6 years there, JATO went thru as many CEOs. The owner is very old school in thinking and creates an environment where it's difficult to challenge him and/or his cronies (also old school and not up-to-date on current business environment/realities).
