Pros

Pretty modern company and working culture.

Although it's pretty US-centric in every aspect, so work-life balance might not be what one would expect.

Flexible working schedule. Nice colleagues. Interesting projects.

Cons

It's essentially a company of one product, with all the pain points it brings. Management is clueless where the whole company should go, so there are countless organizational changes and reprioritization of this and that, which one constantly observes. But it's not like it moves the needle, really; it's just annoying.

Advice to Management

Don't just close projects and initiatives and push people out left and right. Be smart about it, course correct, reshuffle, reassign, and continue until success. People are the main asset for the company, after all.
