Pros
Former employee, was part of the youth moment a couple of years, recently moved on by my own choice. All the coffee, tea, juice, soda you can drink. Lots of free food. Some loyal\talented employees and tech left in the company, but rumor mill reveals many employees (young and old) cleaning up their resumes. Not many will be left to train all of the new offshore hires. Solid insurance offering.
Cons
CIO has to much focus on football, if half of his focs was given to providing development with the resources needed, life would improve for the developers still left. Person newly promoted to CTO is just a fouled mouth (seriously, only takes one meeting with him to understand this, if he could code as well as he can cuss...) mainframe retread developer whose ideas are still in the 90s. New CPO has been labeled the queen of selfies (100s posted in three months) by the employees. Not sure if it is arrogance, being naive, or maybe the CPO thinks it improves employee morale by posting selfies of the exec's drinking\eating\partying for days in an exclusive location in California while layoffs are in progress and jobs are being offshored. CEO speaks of family, love, and trust, but does not even blink during round after round of layoffs and loyal employees being forced out. Would like to be a customer and ask the CEO to even say the word layoff. IMO: CEO visions over the last 3 years have been nightmares for sales and development. HR department handcuffed due to the nepotism at the exec level (ie: recent CTO posting). After another round of layoffs, bragging how great it is to be hiring so many people offshore? Really? Morale improver? This is good leadership style? On top of clearing out talent thru layoffs and retirements, others young (like me) and old are leaving on their own for greener pastures.
