Pros

Yahoo is well known for its brand.

Its front page is among the top-trafficked websites in the world.

It has a well-defined community for development.

The company also tries to balance work and life by constantly having fun events and activities for its employees.

It offers free beverages and gourmet coffee to employees, as well as transportation to connect to major cities in the Bay Area.

Cons

Some of the management teams are incompetent. They don't know how to lead Yahoo in this competitive market. They also don't treat the people working for them fairly. Their evaluation process can be very opinionated to their own benefits.

Advice to Management

You should constantly review the capability of the management team and product team, besides focusing on the sales, finance, and development teams.
