Pros

Best place to work in AR industry if you don't want to work at a big corp (Google, FB, Apple, etc.).

AR products have real users, unlike other AR platforms that are in the R&D phase without live customers.

Company has real potential to be a major player in the AR market.

Cons

It's uncertain when the AR market will be big.

Advice to Management

Focus more on the platform play and less on trying to make hit games (outside of PGO and Japan studio).

There are a lot of listening sessions for employee feedback, but it feels like more can be done by leadership to actually act on the employee feedback.
