Pros

Genuinely good people. Great employee benefits. Was nice to work for an online community that's been around for ages.

Cons

Lack of meaningful direction that started at the executive level and trickled down to various departments. There was one major layoff over the course of my time working here, which made me want to work even harder and meet the goals of the company so we could get back on track. The CEO didn't truly listen to the people around him (and the people he hired to make some very valuable decisions that could benefit the company long-term). He would turn unvetted ideas into action. This was extremely dangerous.
