Pros

It's in San Francisco. 9/80 is great for long weekends.

Cons

- Overly corporate. - Some really terrible middle managers - control freaks to be sure. Maybe just too young and trigger happy. However this is causing employees to leave at a steady rate. - Somehow not a good culture for innovation, which is not good for a company that depends on it more than most.
