Pros

The people, I have never worked in a place where everyone is so awesome and focused on being the best without compromising being human, The transparency of the business and the ability to get things done is unmatched. I actually wake up excited to come to work. The social involvement and desire to know me as a person not just as a resource.

Cons

There really are none. There are challenges like any business but they are easily overcome here.

Pros

Xero has a great product and a lot of very passionate employees who work very hard for their customers.

Cons

The executive leadership at Xero is creating a toxic, backstabbing culture that promotes yes-men at the expense of honest dialogue. It's impossible to make decisions at the company, and multiple rounds of layoffs are leaving all employees shell shocked and fearful. Marketing teams are under-resourced while more demands are constantly being placed on teams to do more. When constraints are communicated, employees are blamed for them, rather that listened to. Multiple colleagues have said the same thing. Additionally, management has instituted a 'rank and yank' policy where everyone is graded on a forced curve, where the bottom quarter are immediately put on a PIP.
