Pros

Free lunches everyday. I like the work from home Wednesdays, although most employees simply take this as a day off.

Cons

Senior management tells the employees that they are working towards an IPO. However, the CEO & CFO have no IPO experience. The CFO is our General Counsel and has no finance experience. This company is going to be sold.

Pros

Pay and benefits were pretty good. Only reason I stayed.

Cons

Chaotic leadership. People are constantly busy doing things that don't matter as there is no clear understanding of what the strategy is or what success looks like.
