Pros

Very smart people, ambitious projects.

Cons

This used to be a much better place to work (apparently, I'm fairly new). The recent situation has seen the following changes: - Benefits keep getting worse, especially healthcare. - Big changes in projects due to restructuring. - Low employee morale due to all the uncertainty.

Great Company in a medium/small office atmosphere

Senior software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A lot of talented and helpful people that have been with the company for a very long time. The office culture was unique and really inclusive.

Cons

The company in general had frivolous spending, just from how many people they kept hiring, definitely was not sustainable. Which in turn caused them to have the major layoffs under the realm of "re-inventing the company". Boulder office took a major hit from bad leadership and management in HQ. Regardless, a great company and an office to work.
