Pros

Used to be a great place to work.

Some great and smart people – many of whom have left, but even the few still left are worth working with.

Cons

Arrival of “empire builders” and MS types had ruined the culture.

Management cares less and less about the people.

Morale is so low it is pathetic.

Management at all levels is clueless.

People still around are just fooling themselves or being lazy and not looking for jobs.

Pay is downright a disgrace, and the stock price being stuck in a rut doesn’t help.

I am giving 1 star only because Glassdoor doesn’t allow a zero.

I am sure the 5-star reviews are fake HR and recruiting reviews.

Advice to Management

Doing something, just getting your millions and sitting in your offices waiting for stocks to vest, won’t help. Maybe even better, quit and get the founders to come back.
