Pros

Flexible hours, relaxed working environment, tech employee benefits par the course.

Cons

Disconnect with employee base; implementing new extremely unpopular travel expenditure program and somehow with stock at an all time high, while nearing profitability, compensation increases are lackluster and remain below market rate. Upward visibility overemphasized.
