Pros

When I was there, the culture was pretty good, and they were an all-remote company. Fidji Simo as CEO was also a big improvement over the prior one.

Cons

High turnover. Many executives left (including Fidji). Stock price has flat-lined. Difficult business. Customer backlash over hidden and excessive fees.

Advice to Management

Reduce headcount and costs.
