Pros

Compensation is good. Benefits are better than average.

Cons

Managers are nice people but terrible technical leaders.

Long hours, zero work-life balance.

No product direction or marketing; amateur hour at its finest.

Terrible communication, and everything must be sent in an email to cover your ass (CYA).

Advice to Management

Listen to your new hires. You hired them to bring in fresh ideas, but there is absolutely no tolerance in this company for innovation. A bunch of old dogs, unable and unwilling to learn new tricks.
