Pros
Science was novel, at one point.
Cons
The science has proved to be crap. irreproducible, IP-failure. (in other words, VCs won't touch science that won't work...). They take the hard way (cheaper).
CEO is looking for his exit. The company is doomed.
A dumpster fire waiting to ignite into more disaster.
Unstable company...save the hassle, find a place that cares.
