Pros

My pros are relevant for why I joined and enjoyed the company, but don't think they are necessarily relevant now. 1. Great pay 2. Growth trajectory 3. Strong partnership with Salesforce 4. Great mid-level to VP management

Cons

1. Senior management makes very short-sided yet major decisions. 2. The company likes to spend frivolously on unneeded things like taking the whole company to Las Vegas and renting out an NFL stadium. 3. It's extremely rich that the company still has the audacity to list Honesty as one of their core values. While sitting in a banquet hall at the Mandalay Bay Hotel with every employee, senior management announced a plan to start spending more conservatively. Ironically, during the same day they had The Blue Man Group perform for us! Less than four months later without giving their cost savings measure any time to take effect and with no forewarning, they make appx. 20% of the workforce redundant in a matter of a couple of days. Many of these positions were back-filled about a quarter later after realizing the harm they'd done to the business. 4. Senior management does not have the fiscal responsibility and foresight to run a stable business. 5. Company culture has been severely damaged over the last year and impacted their once sterling reputation.
