Pros
In 2010, CVM was a decent place to work. We were still a middle-sized startup, maturing rapidly and getting some buzz in the market. There was talk of growth, of opportunity. Morale was decently high.
Cons
Then we got acquired. It was like someone flipped a switch. No one knew this company that now owned us. No one knew if we'd all be let go and replaced. Uncertainty reigned. And CVM never really recovered. People left in droves, morale went downhill, our culture disappeared, and people were just surviving from one day to the next. It was life-sucking, and I had to get away.
