Pros

User Experience group HAD a great culture. Very good in foundation work. Great, well respected and visionary CEO. Great company location.

Cons

In last 10 months the team has become very political. Good work is not appreciated. Don't join at this group right now. No problems with the company but LOTS of problems with the user experience, interaction design group. Many people have left this group in last 6 months due to bad management.

Pros

Products are still best-in-class in all segments. Plenty of really smart colleagues. Spot-on market positioning.

Cons

Loyalty of leadership to staff, which used to be in the "Pro" category, is a thing of the past. It's rapidly becoming a "throw anyone under the bus" culture as people jockey to gain favor with the new layer of management. Some of the new senior layer of management appear inept and wholly unsuited for the task.

Pros

Great products. Great people. Great CEO

Cons

Too much group-think/ Kool Aid drinking. There is actually too much enthusiasm - cult like. The CEO is great, but people treat him as if he is a god. The core product and is great and Marc's clearly a visionary, but there have been a decent number of missteps that were avoidable if people were a bit more objective. And the sales productivity team is totally inane - every few months they come up with new ways of wasting our time with a stupid initiatives which just annoy the sales people.
