      Pros

      I meet here some fantastic people in all departments and I made some great friends in all offices Austin, Cork, Brno and other. Atmosphere has always been in favour of employees and it used to be relatively easy to move between departments to find so called "sweet spot" for you and position which is challenging for you, while you can use your strengths and provide value to company.

      Cons

      With the recent going private situation, there are changes on going and it creates some uncertainty among people (I would personally say not always justified), but that is a consequence of any change. It will take probably few more month, maybe a year for things to settle down and things to get traction again. Generally I'm optimistic as company is doing very well and there is no reason believe otherwise.

      Pros

      The pros are what most product companies have - flexible timing, good pay, free lunch and snacks and whatever most of todays product orgs have to offer. There is a good learning curve because of all the products they have, but only if you are willing to learn. Pay is good

      Cons

      Promotions and HQ visits are for people who baby sit their manager's kid and pass on news. There are undeserving people who got promoted more than 3 times during their short career only because they had the ability to pass information about what happens within remote teams to the boss and was friends with the managers child. They built a great product long ago and are still living in that old glory surviving on pushy sales and ads. The products have no innovation and are stuck in bygone era. Layoffs are the norm - you can get fired any time. I have seen good employees get fired for no reason! The top management is never reachable. They are just management whose strategies worked at some place, sometime in the past and are still living in that old glory. I have no idea why the rest of the top management is still there.
