Pros
They claim to pay above the industry average and there are a handful of smart people who work there, but the latter is true everywhere.
Cons
All the smart people end up leaving once they figure out Sr. Management isn't very talented and has no real vision or strategy. Jim, the CEO. Credit for building something out of nothing, but you are in way over your head now. Maybe the new PE firm will help, but when I left Jim was clueless and surrounded by yes men and women. These management folks would not have the same title or responsibilities anywhere else, but since they kowtow to the boss they do at W2O. The best summary of Jim, the company and their capabilities is a video you can find by Googling W2O values video. Jim thought this was self-depreciating and went to every office to play it personally in front of the whole company. In each office he said something along the lines of "I don't know how many other CEOs would do something like this." like it was something to be proud of and that is Jim to a T. As bad or worse, nobody stood up to tell him the video, the values as hashtags, the production values, etc. were all poor and shouldn't be shared internally or externally.
