Pros

Access to new and innovative technologies. Great people to work with.

Cons

Not all new and innovative technologies are good. There's no real time to really hash out the new technologies. Upper management are too hell bent on rolling out the product that they don't provide the time to go back and fix serious issues before they go live, even though the engineers inform them of such. Micro-management is all over. While on conference call, engineers have been yelled at by CIO. Never a good experience and should never happen.

Pros

cutting edge tech... used to have more :( Some middle management is good, it depends on who you get. stock price is really high. perhaps inflated? not sure.

Cons

Really poor leadership. Lacks communication on initiatives. Everything is an emergency and there is no prioritization. Resources are scarce and it isn't clear if or where leadership will fill recent attrition.
