Pros

Incredible client list in a dynamic emerging industry. Hard working and dedicated workers and front line and middle managers who care about their clients.

Cons

Executive team is short term focused, little strategy beyond grow revenue and find buyer for company. Not interested in investing to build solid business foundation. Looking good is more important than being good. Deep problems are ignored or blamed on scapegoats. Lack of finance system means company does not know which clients or products are profitable - worst is executive team does not care. They will get their big payouts and titles and move on, leaving a company full of missed opportunities.
