Pros

Flexible hours, good vacation, remote work.

Cons

The only thing that seemed to matter was what had already been communicated. Management had told the CEO about project A (which was nonfunctional and lacking even basic quality), so project A was continued. It was irrelevant whether an idea was good, just how well it was politically communicated. Once started, a project was never altered or reversed. A very frustrating place to work for someone that wants to make a real impact.

Excellent company and staff. I believe they have been acquired, so not clear on their current dynamics.

Cons

Abundant change during my short tenure and my position was eliminated after 6 months.
