Pros

Free Bagels on Friday Good work/life balance Comp was competitive Really enjoyed with most of my coworkers

Cons

No commitment from the CEO on company direction Senior team made up of a lot of "lifers" offering no original thinking Aversion to Risk Reclusive CEO Senior managers tend to fire drill and randomize (only know about US, could be different in other countries) Senior management team seems lost... spray and pray strategy? Laying off people than Senior staff takes off on a boondoggle to Cannes that has never resulted in more revenue.
