Wonderful Culture, Declining Market Share Causing Business Problems
The engineering staff is, generally speaking, brilliant.
Great benefits (401k match, travel stipend, dental, vision, etc).
Tons of upward mobility.
Great work-life balance.
The people around you are almost universally pleasant and easy to work with.
The business side of the company seems to be in a constant state of redefining itself. No vision is ever carried out past a year.
Processes can occasionally slow things down.
If it's not clear what the overall vision truly is, nobody will ever be able to coalesce around it. Be honest with what you want, and you'll get better results.
