Pros

Work-life balance is good.

Work is good; learning is much better than at other companies.

The CEO is good and trying hard, but all need to help her achieve a turnaround.

Cons

Direction is lost. It seems like swimming in ocean water and trying to reach the shore.

Executive management does not know much about what's going on ground, other than very high-level summaries. The headcount is way higher than needed. No one asks for justification why we need so many people.

Middle management is not of higher quality. Frequent layoffs occur in the company. I wouldn't recommend it if you plan for a green card by Yahoo Inc.

Advice to Management

See what's going on the ground.
