Pros

- Good product, happy customers - Strong and rich heritage - Unmatched domain experience, very knowledgable people working there - high challenge fast pace - Great group of people to work with - You learn a lot about different verticals - Very flat organization with lean management team

Cons

Located in the heart of Dallas. This can be a tough commute for anyone out in the suburbs of DFW as there is no good way to get there. Also pay is below average. Easy to find a place with more pay with better work/life balance.

Pros

Great tools, smart people, free snacks.

Cons

Lacks vision, as many had mentioned. Brought in leadership from outside companies, companies which are also failing. I don't think this company ever fully recovered from the previous owners. A lot of things were lost including employees and the knowledge they had. New hires can check the employee bios to see how recent people are. Lots of people here do whatever they want instead of following guidelines which make their work all the more difficult for someone else to take over or manage. Former employees did the same and now people have to run around for days just to manage it. A lot of heat coming from the top which trickles down on all levels. Favoritism was also very apparent. If you weren't the favorite it was practically verbal abuse, and no amount of sound proofing in the meeting rooms could hide how displeased everyone was. Management has huge egos which do not allow them to ever be wrong, often turned into a he said/she said thing. Took less than a few months for me to realize that I need to get away from this place. As people say I'm not quitting my job, I'm quitting my manager.
