The only pro is the all-cash compensation, however there's downsides to it as well. You can invest it any way you want, but holding RSUs that can promise gains is a sweet thing.

There was high stress. The culture was declining with no team spirit, no motivation, and no acknowledgement. Politics were dragged in from higher levels. There was no transparency in hiring or firing decisions. There was no learning or mentoring culture. Seldom was one set up for success, and it was everyone trying to save their own butts.

Please take a lot of care and attention in hiring leaders. Don't just look on paper. I'm tired of people from Google and Facebook coming in with a chip on their shoulder and their arrogant attitudes and ruining our culture.
