Pros

None anymore. Gusto was great 5 years ago in the midst of the tech bloom but now is completely stagnant.

Cons

Poor management can’t commit to a single thing. Projects were started just to be scrapped 3 months later. No one can commit to anything, just people pretending to work for the most part. All the good high level leaders quit within the last year. They also did layoffs in Feb and suspiciously laid off some of the top performers who coincidentally were critical of the company at times. CEO has no long term vision and refuses to listen to the people around him, who eventually end up quitting anyways
