Pros

Management likes to be invisible, leaving engineers to develop the real quality that drives the product forward. Very relaxed environment with lots of freedom to own projects and innovate. Leader in communities, well-respected by customers and prospects.

Cons

Lots of technical debt due to rapid growth. Lack of technical leadership has led to inconsistent codebase, and the loudest voice often winning. Hiring challenges lead to understaffing at times.
