Pros

Some incredibly sharp minds are there. It makes for a fun environment to be in and learn from. Some of the products are quite impressive.

Cons

Could not be more poorly staffed at the top. Loaded with incompetence from middle managers on up. Some positive changes were made at the lower levels and started to see positive changes last year in the sales talent but the mismanagement of finances, poor spending choices, and poor hires in mid-management have left some scratching their heads with questions on the viability of the company. Key points: hiring in a ton of account management people before the account base was large enough to support it; running basically without a CTO (someone sits in the seat but he is not effective) for a year or more; building out an amazing office in one of the most expensive areas of downtown San Francisco just to appease the ego of the CEO; incompetence in financial reporting resulting in a HUGE layoff last month really highlights this;

Pros

I have worked at Arxan for almost 1.5 years. This is by far one of my favorite companies I have worked for - I am a seasoned professional, so I don't say this lightly. There is a great energy, respect and a sense of cohesiveness among the various departments - we are all working together (and owning our areas) to ensure the company's success. The executive staff is very connected to the team and the CEO (who is extremely kind and humble) does an excellent job communicating and being transparent. The company holds routinely scheduled all-hands meetings so the CEO can update employees on any recent events and typically department heads will provide updates (so there is good cross-communication among the various departments). The work environment is awesome - we have the most amazing SF views and the people here are really fun to be around (in addition to being very good at their jobs). Finally, the company is on a growth trajectory so it's an especially exciting time to be here.

Cons

You must be able to produce/deliver because there is no place for mediocrity here. The ability to think outside of the box is important too.
