Pros

-Great work life balance -Good benefits -Hires smart people

Cons

-The Chairman/"interim" CEO keeps coming and going, and sees people as a never-ending resource to lay off and then go hire a new crop -The company keeps trying to "re-invent" the same old RealPlayer instead of heading into new territory -The company can get overly-invested in outdated processes -Antiquated infrastructure
