Pros

There are still somehow good engineers here.

Cons

The 4 positive reviews from the week of May 2nd all mention that the new CEO is a good change, and 3 of 4 specifically call out the ex-CEO as a negative. Well, the new CEO was forced out by the ex-CEO (who is now back in charge). Those reviews should be updated accordingly. Cons: 1. The direction of the company changes monthly; leadership can not find a way to profitability. 2. The nepotism is unbelievably bad. 3. Morale is rock bottom due to lack of transparency, people quitting, lack of market success, 2 rounds of layoffs, etc
