Strategy is heading in the right direction, Organization Health has a long way to go.
Pros: Company builds some very exciting products and is showing more openness to hear the market's feedback.  Potential with new organizational structureand CEO to realize some of the great potential.
Cons: 50/50 chance of landing in an organization that will function well.  If you land in one that does not the politics, unethical behaviors and agendas driven by personal interests of the management can completely destroy your career.  Your manager controls 90% of your success of your career, if they don't like you, are not effective in their organization regardless of your contributions you will not be recognized. As a result many people promoted are not the most qualified or the "leaders" you would hope to see running the company.
