Pros

Nice offices, nice gym, generous vacation, smart and hard-working colleagues

Cons

Senior management is useless. The only senior manager that matters is Saylor. The technology is slowly showing that cannot keep pace with companies like Tableau. Our CTO is clueless and a very poor leader. We spend more time dealing with bureaucratic stuff instead of actually improving the product. We keep hiring Senior VPs with huge salary packages but we cannot increase a key engineer salary by 10k.

Very limited growth. Not likely to ever recover strong revenue growth and the company is experiencing a slow death

Business Outlook

Pros

Perks that have accumulated over the years but nothing extraordinary. Health insurance is okay and vacation policy is good if you stay there long.

Cons

Cost cutting environment. No real opportunities for growth at any level. All senior positions are taken by outsiders. No employee loyalty.
