Pros

Challenging work. Flexible work hours, some work from home opportunities. Strong business acumen among colleagues.

Cons

Just filed for Chapter 11, so there will be significant cost-cutting, restructuring over the next couple years. Narrow-focused management, very little push for development/growth. Projects are not evaluated based on financial merit but on personal agendas.

Pros

The company used to care about customers, but they removed all the sales people who actually visited and consulted with customers to save travel cost.

Cons

The company's newest CEO, Patrick, only cares about getting back to a Cybersecurity company as fast as possible. Can't sell the company fast enough, but buyers can't get past due diligence periods.
