Pros
The original product vision was fantastic. The co-founders established a scrappy startup culture with a vision of how the product would evolve over time. First 5 years saw massive growth. People here are passionate about their job and for the most part very skilled. Working in the bike industry is fun, and in person events in the past were a great way to meet coworkers from other departments.
Cons
Everything changed when the original head of Product and cofounder stepped down. Current leadership has little to no experience in software development let alone game development. Development is a mess. Constant useless meetings, design proposal process that takes more time to get something approved then to develop a feature, and decisions being made by leaders who don't understand the product. Releases have very little meaningful content, leadership uses buzzwords to explain decision making. Compensation is always lagging. Your title and pay often reflects where you were a year or more ago. Promotions don't reflect accomplishments but rather focus on internal networking and who you know. There are more VPs then game programmers. Company is riding off the success of it's first 5 years but it can only last so long.
