Pros

Good benefits. Good Compensation. HDHP which seems to be the norm but there's an HSA contribution that makes it pretty good. Very talented staff. Engineering heavy with a lot of advanced degrees. New Exec additions will be beneficial with someone who can finally sell the product which has been missing for years.

Cons

Lack of processes, leadership and accountability. Core values are preached but not adhered to. Work life balance is non existent. The employees are overworked and that's the expectation. A comment was made "if you're the type to want to tend to your tomatoes, then this isn't the right place for you" which means forget about having a family or interests outside of work. Bad habit of moving under performing people into different roles that also don't fit their skill set. Including a founder who's job title and description has changed too many times due to immaturity and lack of leadership skills. The culture is generally that of disgruntled employees. They are overworked and not listened to. There are too many meetings so the efficiency of the organization is low and there's too much wasted time and money in excessive and redundant meetings. Leadership knows it's an issue and does nothing to change it. Certain customer facing leaders lack the professionalism and grasp of proper grammar, spelling and punctuation. Too many internal and external communications have been sent as word salad which comes across as unprofessional and uneducated. Lack of accountability, while this is another core value, it only applies to staff when it comes to reviews and performance increases. Objectives are unobtainable and yet the objectives for the executive team are constantly being missed, changed and eliminated to fit some arbitrary goal. Bad behavior is consistently tolerated. Gossiping, Rumors, Harassment, bullying and abusive language has led to an uncomfortable and at times hostile work environment. The stress level is through the roof due to the extreme workload and problem riddled products, which is exacerbated by some in leadership and I have personally seen people in tears due to it. Lack of trust and respect in the leadership. Too many people in leadership positions are not respected or trusted because employees get thrown under the bus because leadership can't take personal responsibility in the failure of their departments. Customers are not listened to, years go by without issues or requests being fulfilled. Too many reorganizations, processes have to constantly be revised, roles changed and it creates gaps in accountability and frustration for the staff. Also drives IT crazy trying to keep up with permissions and access rights.
