Pros

Great perks including catered lunches, benefits, working from home on Wednesdays

Cons

The CEO at the time was kind of authoritarian, but the newly appointed CEO is someone who seems to work a lot better at empowering people and not just bossing them around.

Pros

Pay and benefits were pretty good. Only reason I stayed.

Cons

Chaotic leadership. People are constantly busy doing things that don't matter as there is no clear understanding of what the strategy is or what success looks like.
