Avantages
An A-list roster of employees from the largest companies and best schools in the world (and they know it) Location of office is in heart of financial district, lots of well-to-dos and cool food places Programmers are all well-adjusted social types and a joy to work with Lots of games played after work Free beer every Friday
Inconvénients
CEO has chosen half a dozen different directions to take the company (a schizophrenic vision) CEO is hyperactive and undisciplined. Does handstands in meetings - literally - but expects to be respected. Not long after the company's creation, a deeply hierarchical management structure and secretive decision making culture were formed. Often actions out-weigh actual resources. A lot of young upstarts with Cambridge degrees who don't respect seasoned advice. A lot of big talk with no actual product or services shipped. Promising tech that doesn't uphold the promise. Boy's club vibe. Earning a flaky and dishonest reputation in the games sector.
