Pros

The people are great and easy to work with.

Cons

There is no direction, constantly shifting focus, always reactionary chasing the "next" thing, but you can't commit to anything. It is a great place to go for career death, if you just want to collect a paycheck. It is a terrible place to go if you want to focus on innovating. I had to quit for my sanity.

Advice to Management

Fire yourself.
