Pros

It used to be a great company until I'd say 2013 when the CTO was replaced and the COO was fired. There's still some good talent left but they are leaving by the dozens every month. There is a great amount of care at the lower levels.

Cons

The company has gone downhill at an unbelievable speed and has lost several thousands of knowledge years with people leaving in masses. There is very little IQ left and that explains the lack of vision across all business units. All the good guys that mistreated so badly are now taking names and kicking butt at competitors' shops and other successful local companies being run by former MSTR execs.
