Pros
Vision of Lendistry is awesome. The majority of the executives exemplify the vison and the idea of what Lendistry claims to be and what they strive to be. I believe they can accomplish their goals if they root out the bad before it's too late. Cost of medical/dental/vision benefits are starting to go down This is the first company I've been in that has such a diverse executive staff. A lot of strong women to look up to if you are a woman seeking to grow your career.
Cons
The engineering department under the current CTO is extremely toxic. If you do something that the CTO does not agree with, you run the risk of getting yelled at. A few people even had their job threatened. So a lot of people are keeping their mouth shut for fear of retaliation. CTO does not believe in Agile and says that "Agile Scrum" will not work in this environment. But he will not provide a roadmap of a process to follow. You can do one thing one month, something happens and he makes you redo the entire "process" while making comments implying we were doing something wrong the whole time. No consistent, stable guidance. He has given his "key players" authority to deny and refuse software update requests from the business. And he admittedly works in an environment of interruption...which means you have to interrupt him. And that means he will interrupt you and pull you out of meetings. He's more of a dictator than a leader and does NOT fit the environment the other executives have created in the other teams.
