Pros
  • I love my view from the Tower.
  • I have a ton of options since I came pretty early.
  • Lots of cool people to work with.
Cons

So much dilution in shares that everyone who thinks we're going to be rich from this IPO is delusional.

So many young managers hurt the morale of the teams. Honestly, these kids are way too inexperienced.

We're far behind in the Enterprise space but kicking butt in the Consumer space. I think it's too late to catch up on the Enterprise side, but for some reason, we keep wasting time and energy here.

Advice to Management

Get the priorities right. Enterprise or Consumer. It is demoralizing and confusing everyone.
