Pros

99% of the people are genuine, caring, and work ridiculously hard chasing the idea of delighting our customers beyond belief which all be it is a great thing. The 1% of it, which though is very artificial.

Cons

The CEO. All change will come from the day in which he gets out of his own way and lets the extremely talented people we've hired lead. We're not Google, stop trying to implement their practices (there's a world of reasons why what they do won't work for us) and you don't have the skill set or the people skills to interact with 20+ direct reports for one on ones. We're in a highly saturated market in which our product features have at best incremental changes to accommodate changes in the market, let's try to REALLY innovate. Do we remember what that is like?

Thank you for your feedback. We have learned a lot in the last year and we are innovating and building. I would also say our CEO now has a team that he trusts and can get 'out of the way' now. It is nice to see the growth and evolution!
