Pros

Smart, hardworking colleagues, lots of turnover can mean room for advancement

Cons

Surprising there aren't more negative reviews given widespread frustration at the company. Exec team is oversized and generally less competent than directors/managers/ICs. Beware the "growth-stage startup" claims — LinkedIn says headcount is down by almost half, and that's true. Not a place to grow your career or make decent money
