Pros

close to public transit, friendly staff with mixed backgrounds, medical benefits, flexible work schedule

Cons

Management is running this business into the ground. The CEO is the epitome of an out-of-touch executive officer. The rest of the staff mean well, but are not appropriately compensated for their work, neither in salary nor in terms of professional development. Deadlines are unrealistic, and working on weekends and 'till 4am during the week is the norm. The CEO claims he prioritizes work/life balance, but turns around and hypocritically states he doesn't care if a death in the family has occurred: work is the priority. This team lacks the horsepower, capital, and foresight to make their product succeed. Strategy is haphazard, with a charge-what-they-will-pay pricing. After a slew of hiring/layoffs, the environment here is toxic and turnover is high. Do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY.
