Pros
A company at the cutting edge of technology, creating great products and encouraging people to lead healthier, happier and more active lives. The work culture is fantastic to be a part of and it's great to be surrounded by colleagues of the highest standard.
Cons
None so far, though if I had to pick something it would be the challenges of keeping up in such a fast growing business.
Advice to Management
Be proud of what you have created, stick to the business core values, keep up the hard work and future success will follow
