Pros

Once upon a time, this company was the darling in mobile advertising. Today they are no longer a relevant player in the mobile advertising space.

Cons

The two words that best describe Chartboost are "missed opportunities." Missed opportunities to develop products early instead of playing catch-up after competition has launched it. Missed opportunities to retain quality employees - over 80% of the company has turned over in the last 2 years. And lastly, missed opportunities for a strong exit - the company's valuation has dropped significantly in the last three years. Why is this? MANAGEMENT. A lack of transparency from up top, questionable hiring/promotion decision, and nepotism at the exec level. Surprised that the investors haven't stepped in and forced a sale yet.
