Pros

Great founder and team. Worked through lots of ups and downs - many stories about the company in the book The Startup Lottery

Cons

faced tons of competition from better funded competitors. Lots of board disruption with lead investor board member changes and unsupportive board members who sued the company’s after refusing to invest and then got upset when the company sold for a good price later.
