I'm sure they're smart, but not just the best business leaders.

Pros

Competitive salary Flexible working hours and vacation Free lunches and snacks Happy hours Employee-paid massages and yoga on-site

Cons

Misleading communication on actual status of the product and position of the company. Management itself appears to be unsure of the path they want to bring their product and expertise to. This may be true to all start-ups, but Lytro does not exercise caution on their operating expenses. Not the strongest individual contributors on the team that I was a part of. They're not receptive to improvements and some are just plain bullies.
