Pros

Great People in lower leadership roles and technical roles.

Cons

Sr Management is completely incompetent. President isn't a developer, has never written a line of code in his life and dictates to developers which language he wants the developers which language to program with. HR hiring experience can go multiple months as they figure out what they want to do which will ultimately lead to an under market offer. Work/Life balance used to be excellent, now senior management is pushing unrealistic schedules which are impacting quality.

Pros

A once great company with great technology. Very talented technical people. Senior Leaderships surprising ability to articulate corporate vision/strategy to investors without actually delivering.

Cons

Lack of experience and trustworthyness at the senior leadership level. Inability of Senior Leaderships to lead and execute against stated corporate vision/strategy. Too many hollow promised and rampent internal politics. Lack of value and appreciation of loyal experienced employees, with a propensity to correct poor financials by reducing headcount (via layoffs) rather than addressing the problem within the rank of senior leadership that are creating the problems. Extremely poor work/life balance, as leadership doesn't appreciate or reward efforts that go above and beyond, while demanding long hours, many late nights, and working vacations.
