Pros

I could not wait to get out of there so I suppose it drove my motivation

Cons

Leadership was awful, uninspiring and self-serving. The lack of strategy was astounding. Their big plan for growth was via acquisition, with no ability to functionally integrate new teams/brands into the business.
