Pros

Some amazing people here. Yes many left with HQ move but they hired in a lot of good people. The interim CEO is well known and well liked by many and has the right intentions. Wants the company to win. Strategy for the company is sound. Pay is good, benefits are good, amenities at the HQ are good.

Cons

Company went from an exciting headquarters move to a real turnaround situation. Stock price says a lot right now even it not all of that is due to things that leaders can control. Leaner times are ahead for the next year despite pressure to really execute.
