Pros

Lean startup, good people, bold vision

Cons

Very complex organization with slow decision making process and terrible HR culture, coming from the very top. 10ish departures in the leadership / exec team in the past 14 months. Ask questions about it if you are interviewing

Pros

A lot of autonomy because leadership has no idea what they're doing

Cons

More cons than pros - Leadership consistently lies to you, very secretive, multiple times we have come close to running out of money, poor financial management on offsites and team events when we should be cutting costs, middle management gets blamed for leadership's results, people odn't work hard. The CEO does work hard. No direction and scatter brained. No semblance of culture. Multiple back to back layoffs. Avoid at all costs please
