Fun, but weak middle management

Pros

- In general, smart, nice people - Good work/life balance - Fun vertical, interesting work - Great parties. - Lots of laughter

Cons

- Many of the management below the CxO layer is mediocre at best. No action taken on poor performing leaders. There is a tight circle of people who are the "in crowd" and they protect each other. I think the company could be performing much better if they had strong leadership at the Director+ level.

Pros

People are nice and the industry space is exciting. The general population is hard working, super fun and great to work with. There is a good effort to promote from within. There is a lot of passion about the industry. People like to hang out together outside of work.

Cons

New CEO is getting things done, but with collateral damage. There has been a lot of turnover at the senior levels. The CEO looks for people to agree with her doesn’t always back her leaders. There is overt favoritism.
