Pros

The people that I worked with were always able to get projects done, no matter how ridiculous or insignificant that project was. The people were always willing to do a little extra to help each other. Very smart, capable employees. The location in midtown was great as well. The pay was pretty good.

Cons

The new leadership has a vote of no confidence from their employees. It's been months since the transition and there has been no direction provided. Plenty of platitudes, but nothing of substance. It always feels like leadership is reacting to every quarterly earnings statement with no big picture in mind.

Pros

Very talented people at the company but many are leaving or looking to leave, but that's about it.

Cons

Probably more than can be written here. Bad management all around, very out of touch and have no real understanding about technology their knowledge is very dated. The company has really so much potential but for some reason we keep getting duds in the leadership roles. We lost so many good and talented people but yet all of the top heavy management were able to keep their jobs not sure why because they are about 80% of the problem. Here are bullet points why the company is going down the toilet - No Employee Retention Over the past 6+ months the leadership team was able to demoralize this company to lowest as it has ever been. They have no plan to change this. - Leadership is totally out of touch with what the company does We create the traffic, the content and the purpose but managment is so clueless and they shut any real initiatives down or simply ignore them. - Maybe they just trying to make the books look good on paper and could careless if the company will pull through or not. - Employees do twice as much work with less resources. how long do they think that this will go on?
