Great out of college opportunity, great people, but poor management
Pros: -Really great learning experience for PM's right out of college (not many companies let new grads define user experience)
-Mostly good people (for the most part), both on the engineering, product, and design disciplines
-Really cool projects (in some areas of the company)
Cons: -Not much executive vision, a lot of top down decision making
-Reward structure / promotions highly correlated to how much your boss likes you the visibility you get on your projects (vs. actual customer value you deliver)
-Slow career growth trajectory
