Pros

Generally nice people, made some good friends

Cons

Can't figure out what their strategy is, management style is very process and approval heavy. Don't believe in enpowering their staff.

Pros

Plaxo has a startup culture inside a big company. People like to build products quickly that get used by lots of people.

Cons

not a true startup, so no more promises of millions to be made when the company goes IPO or gets acquired

Pros

- smart, fun people - great environment - strong support of work/life balance - free cable - startup-esque environment with big company backing - truly open-door management team

Cons

- 5+ year old product (and therefore codebase) makes up core offering - incredibly negative consumer reviews of product make even NEW releases an uphill battle - interfacing with Comcast, when required, can be difficult - upper management team relatively inexperienced; flip strategic direction often based on incomplete information - general lack of accountability for poor performers
