Pros

Company seemed to have hired very smart, talented people in the beginning. Very good training (although long) to get new employees quickly up-to-speed on products. Most people were easy to work with.

Cons

Internal processes are horrible. Executives are clueless. Company grew way too quickly, adding a large number of new employees only to have layoffs follow. Poor planning on that front. Many talented people started leaving. Poor severance package that doesn't meet industry standards.
