Pros

This is a good company for someone who wants to waste their days away in a cold, dreary office with negative executives who constantly belittle their employees in the name of 'intensity'... Really good comp.. or it was, atleast. I'm pretty sure they've gotten worse since I left. Money isn't worth misery

Cons

Long work days - they expect you to work well past 5 PM and publicly shame if you don't They are revenue driven in the worst way They let people go constantly with very little insight into why - I left on my own, but know of multiple people who were cut off cold turkey for very little reason besides budget and reorg The CEO bullies and belittles employees constantly - and it WAY too involved in sales/engineering. Doesn't let the VPs do their job properly and confuses employees with back and forth If you value your personal life, I'd steer very clear of this place
