Pros

Great product from a technology perspective. Good solid people work there.

Cons

Executive Leadership is completely a mess- they can't keep anyone in a leadership role. Don't think they know what leadership is supposed to look like and they keep going back to tactical stuff. Can't grow a business this way.

Business Outlook

Pros

Cool technology, some very good, talented people and the work is challenging and interesting.

Cons

The company is poorly run, with really no real direction. Little value is placed on employees, and massive layoffs happen every December. Not ONE of the systems they have installed at customer sites functions as advertised, and they never will. I don't see this company in business in five years. Glad I left when i did, it was a waste of time.
