Pros

- In general, smart, nice people - Good work/life balance - Fun vertical, interesting work - Great parties. - Lots of laughter

Cons

- Many of the management below the CxO layer is mediocre at best. No action taken on poor performing leaders. There is a tight circle of people who are the "in crowd" and they protect each other. I think the company could be performing much better if they had strong leadership at the Director+ level.
