Pros

-Great Brand, awesome products and passionate people. -They do encourage living the “GoPro Lifestyle” - be passionate about something and share that passion.

Cons

-The Nick Factor: Working for a visionary founder can be amazing and inspirational. It can also be devastating to an incredible company when that founder owns 51% of the voting shares and is not accountable to anyone for a failure to execute. He should remain as a visionary Chief of Product / Marketing - but he needs a real CEO and COO to fix the systemic churn and failure to execute that sits squarely at his feet.
