Pros
Product and overall culture/flexibility is good.
Cons
People who have been there for some time or are part of the exec teams "clique" get raised to positions they have not enough experience for. Accounting department has no clue how to run a retail back end function properly and was set up poorly. Not set up for growth. They've been around too long to just barely be profitable. Was a fun place to be at first but every start up needs to weed out the unexperienced as growth happens and invest in experienced people to withstand the growth process. Too much turnover because of poorly managed functions or functions being treated as more than one. Terrible relationship with vendors. Not enough money to fix all the problems within a critical timeframe. Very risky, Investment company will sell so there is an uncertainty to anyone's position. More so than just recession related.
