Pros

Compensation is pretty god when you blow out your numbers. The middle to senior management of the company is very good. There is a lot of loyalty amongst the folks who have been with the company for a long time. I think Microstrategy is a place where you either make it right away and stay for a long time or you don't fit in and leave very quickly.

Cons

No ESPP, not stock options or long term equity. Saylor is very controlling of most of the operations in the company and seems to change his mind at random.
