Pros

- The people that work at Splice generally really, really care about the product they're building. Many are current / former musicians themselves - Communication from the top of the org is frequent - Great work/life balance - Pay was good - Benefits were good

Cons

- I got laid off along with several others - Holy Re-Orgs, Batman! In my time at Splice I went through two significant re-orgs within the engineering department. This third re-org resulted in layoffs. - The organization as a whole often felt like it was lacking in direction while under former-CEO Steve, yet to be seen how the company takes shape under Kakul (although layoffs are a pretty rough start in my (admittedly biased) opinion) - Rather than allocating sufficient resources to clean up (very) old messes, management seems to be content with adding new features and focusing on adding to the pile
