Pros

- Innovative product - Great remote company culture - Teams (that I work with at least) have great people with great ideas and action - Ability to design solutions, get buy in, and implement them with little friction

Cons

Previous leadership was poor. They have all been fired and replaced. The board realized they were not leading us in the right direction and made the choice to replace them. This lead to 2 layoffs and decreased moral. Things are looking up now, but it is still work to keep the right direction.
