Pros

As always, this is contingent on your team and organization. There is a good work-life balance, and plenty of opportunity for growth. The stock has had a few healthy quarters. The company offers a competitive benefits package and TC, alongside a competent CEO.

Cons
  • Leadership churn
  • Unclear direction of the physical caper org
  • Core product seems to mostly be KTLO, which is difficult to grow
