Pros

Good people. Good culture in some teams still exists.

Cons

Management has no idea what needs to be done, which is why the company is falling apart.

A common perception is that their equity is not worth anything anymore. They cancelled the IPO due to that fear.

Insane amount of churn. Many new employees left within the first month.

Advice to Management

Hire some experienced people to run the business and stop micromanaging.
