Pros

Great customers - our customers truly love our product and are more than willing to bend over backwards to provide feedback to help shape future iterations Great people - dedicated associates who truly want to produce a world-class product in-spite of circumstances Great perks - new office space, lunches, snacks, and employee events

Cons

CTO who thinks he's lead designer, developer, and general know-it-all. Yet he doesn't believe our customers are smart enough to know what they want. Or that we should look to competitors to ensure we're viable in the market place. Lackluster leadership team - since the IPO leadership has been a revolving door! Lack of strategic product vision or direction. Continuous insertion of management layers - instead of hiring experts to do the work they choose to hire directors and managers - who aren't actually producing anything other than meeting invites, and more questions.

Pros

Great healthcare benefits and the legacy product still works

Cons

You won’t find worse leadership, micromanagement, broken processes, and a new ‘vision’ every quarter. Customers have stopped renewing and they are forced to buy features they don’t use or want.
