Pros

Great products, name, & brand equity. The brand is loved and the growth in natural/organic will mean lot's of growth for Annie's in the future.

Cons

Management, especially in sales, is sub-par at best. It's a culture of fire drills, usually with the time and effort put into those exercises leading to nothing. Lot's of redundancies in what the sales team is asked to do, which leads to a tremendous amount of wasted effort and very little selling. Patchwork of systems is antiquated and only leads to increased frustrations. Amazing that growth of +20% year over year is achieved, which should be substantially more with better leadership.

Pros

Awesome culture and work life balance. Amazing leadership! Awesome non-GMO products.

Cons

The only con was that is was purchased by a large company and ended up closing the Berkeley office and losing that feeling of close-knit family.
