Pros

-Benefits -Product customers love -CEO is good

Cons

The volume of work has grown to a point where you can't keep up. They keep lean teams and do not provide good insights on career growth. It has turned into a toxic workplace and lost what made it special. Hopefully the leadership team is able to right the ship.
