Pros

Good mngt though lack of consistent strategy. Tried to be something they weren't and missed the user angle, though concept was sound.

Cons

No strategy. Some bad senior hires on IT side.

Pros

- Low pressure environment. Hours aren't crazy long. - Some great people - Central location - Slightly above market rates for most jobs

Cons

- Very top-heavy. Lots of chiefs and few indians. Many chiefs come from years in the corporate world. - Mostly funded by retail banks and the like and that brings with it a certain mentality that is often at odds with the nature of a startup. Banks aren't known for their innovation it shows in a lot of what goes on. - There is no real consensus on what the product is and as a consequence there is a lot of activity shooting in often conflicting or unknown directions. - No real culture. Seem to be good at selling one of the many visions to candidates but very quickly most realise it is not what it said on the label. - Lots and lots of meetings that have no discernible purpose and pretty much go nowhere. If you like meetings, this is the place for you.
