Pros

Product is great and currently complementing and augmenting existing BI implementations. Not robust enough yet to replace Tableau or Qlik's of the world but in time should be a player in the space.

Cons

Culture is not all about free lunches and a weekly all hands meeting that put people to sleep. The CEO is a micro manager and a bully and does set proper expectations of his direct reports. Career path is a challenge as well especially in sales.
