Pros

Free lunches, pool table, good benefits.

Cons

Company started out as a chat app with investors from Korea. They failed at chat, decided to go public on the Canadian exchange to raise funds, and then they acquired a company called WorldNow. The acquisition was strange as WorldNow had nothing to do with chat. Instead, WorldNow was a company that built/maintained news and weather apps for several local news stations. Frankly thought they could do this better, but failed to materialize any significant deals and had to lay off most of their staff.
