Pros

The CEO demands great coffee in the office and great coffee is what we got. We had some AWESOME customers and I spent most of my time on the West Coast hanging with great people from exciting companies.

Cons

I have never encountered a company where internal processes seem to hinder progress as much as they do here. There appears to be a lack of accountability across departments, and many processes feel as if they were set up to fail from the beginning. Unfortunately, the product is no longer leading the market, and many of the most talented employees are choosing to leave. Meanwhile, leadership seems focused more on meeting retention goals tied to the acquisition, rather than addressing the underlying issues. Unless significant changes are made, it’s difficult to see a promising future for this company.

Pros

There are pockets of people who work really hard to make the company and products better.

Cons

Difficult to know where to start. The main issue at present is the quality of the executive leaders starting with the new CEO. He is an empty suit full of Harvard and Amazon cliches roleplaying as a sales and marketing guru. The CRO is extremely unlikable and spends almost no time with employees or customers. The systemic issue is the favoritism that exists all over the organization with company loyalists getting put into positions well above their capabilities. This is the case in sales and engineering with long time employees in cushy roles they are unqualified for. More talented leaders from outside the company were pushed out because they were not as agreeable as the loyalists. The company would rather hire and retain mediocre but loyal employees than those who bring new ideas or challenge long held beliefs.
