Coming from a start-up background, I found this a very frustrating place to work.

Pros

They pay was good, but not sure if that was the norm or only to hold on to talent when they acquired our company. A good place to work if you're not very driven/ambitious?

Cons

Reporting structure can be very strange. I've never had so many bosses at the same time. Most with conflicting ideas about priorities and goals. Getting the simplest thing done can take three meetings and 12 signatures.
