      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very relaxed environment, nice group of people. The CEO is invested heavily in the equity of the business so interests are very clearly aligned with the success of the business.

      Cons

      For senior employees there's the opportunity to make good money though funding costs are v high compared to elsewhere. For junior employees (VP and below) it's not at all a meritocracy, no matter how good/awful you are, you will go up a level every 3 yrs.
