Pros

Some great people to work with and some really bright engineering talent.

Cons

The company is falling apart -- too many VPs and multiple rounds of layoffs. All cost cutting is through people. The instability is unsettling for all, and having to do more with less is really stretching people.

Advice to Management

Pay attention, you're losing great engineers. Needless VPs and layers are killing decision-making.
