Pros
Company is growing FAST! Metrics and stock price improvements have been impressive. They've identified some areas requiring improvement and have made investments, including much needed improvements in IT. With regard to IT, the improvements have been notable. Much still to do, but have made some dramatic changes for the better. Have hired several new people, most have been great. Some, that couldn't keep up with the change, have left or been asked to leave, and are likely the disgruntled ones on this board. Merger with Bridge will bring positive cultural and business knowledge and discipline. Have some big projects for business and product improvements in progress.
Cons
Some challenges with corporate culture keeping up with the huge growth and need to evolve processes (HR, risk, compliance, overall executive leadership skill). Many areas immature on business side and haven't kept up with growth and corporate integration. Employee satisfaction is impacting retention which is magnified by continued growth and need for good people.
