Pros

Lots of Potential Good people under management Decent products (that could be even better with the right changes)

Cons

1. SF Office - morale very bad and getting worse 2. No communication whatsoever 3. No inspiration or clear direction in any department; no clear message about what we are doing 4. No hope that anything will change 5. Upper management burying their heads in the sand; more focused on themselves 6. Current structure does not allow for collaboration or input from anyone below upper management 7. No one feels appreciated 8. Zero agility 9. SF office does not feel like a Silicon Valley tech company - no fun allowed 10. Upper management so afraid of leader and his increasing demands that they forget about their own people! 11. It's a perfect case study of how "not" to run a division of a big, public software company
