Business outlook
Pros
Really good people for the most part. Not a lot of politics. A lot of 9-5'ers in the HQ building. Lots of leeway to do what you think is right, within the narrowing guardrails of business opportunities and time pressures. You'll learn a lot and do well if you have older software skills and don't contradict past choices and don't expect to breakout from the core technology with a new product.
Cons
It's run by the CEO, plain and simple. He's engaging but not transparent with anyone and can quickly criticize people behind their back. Don't bring him revolutionary ideas. He's already found all them. He's not a problem-solving manager; he's an "executive". A lot of dead weight, still from the earlier days.
