Pros
- Competitive Salary - Laid back work environment, good work/life balance - Colleagues are generally smart and nice - Lots of autonomy in your work - Well regarded brand in the startup world, so it's a good training grounds if you want to go work at another startup - They finally fired John Dillion
Cons
- Execs cannot focus or prioritize, so resources are spread thin - They tried to be everything to everyone, with the attempt to be a polyglot company, which is not a good strategy with the engineering resources they have. Ended up poorly executing those strategies. - They try to save money by hiring more inexperienced people who have no idea what they are doing, which is a burden on people who are more experienced and properly trained in their function. - Lack of processes and discipline on enforcing the little processes they do have leads to chaos when trying to get anything done efficiently - Extremely high turnover makes it difficult to maintain any momentum, lots of talented execs and employees have left - New CEO ended up cutting costs through layoffs. Let go talented employees and kept some incompetent ones.
