Pros

Product is good and they could leverage it better

Cons

They are continuing to cut people. There is a toxic culture where everybody is looking to protect themself. They are firing people with no respect of their experience, seniority, knowledge... Their marketing sucks, they are changing the message every 6 months. They have a fundamental pipeline problem. Also, leadership is trying to avoid conflict with the CEO and they are making absurd decisions just to please him and keep their seats. It's not a good place to be.
