Friendly Team, Unstable Management

Pros: Lots of friendly engineers, pay was okay in theory.
Cons: Management is unstable, which reflects on the company as a whole. Every week, we would get an email about senior position changes and reorganizations.
The pay is too heavily reliant on unreliable stock.
