Pros

Good products and people. They are in a good space in regards to the ecommerce industry. Wide portfolio of products which is beneficial when it comes to sales.

Cons

Typical corporate environment that is micro managed to the point of excess. The brand name had been tainted in the past due to poor corporate decisions in the past.
