Pros

The one good thing about PLG is that they used to hire lovely people.

Cons

The 5 star reviews are clearly coerced/fake. Notice how it's all generic positive things? They give 3% raises if anything at all. They removed most people from salary they'd had for years and dropped them down to hourly. They overwork people and when interviewing for a different position, I was told that "most of us cry at our desk". They launched and tanked a shoe company. Lost tens of millions of dollars because they couldn't take the time to properly test the footwear. They moved the headquarters of PORTLAND Leather Goods to AUSTIN, Tx for tax reasons. The CMO who is in charge of most the of the US based company, has zero experience and got their job by saying yes to everything the owner wants. The owner is a marketing guy, not a craftsman. If you want more insight, follow the him on LinkedIn, you'll see what kind of person he is.
