Pros

- Talented engineers - at least before the laid most of them off - 9/80 schedule

Cons

- Raises were pitiful, under current inflation for the last 3 years - Gave stocks instead of raises that never vested before company-wide layoffs - Laid off large groups of employees every 6 months or so. Literally no one is safe except for upper management - Seems to desperately trying to enter the SaaS market without a viable plan - Advancement & promotion difficult
