Pros

Office lights come on at 6am automatically (know this well from working many all nighters). QA personnel could always be found at the pool table and fuse-ball table. Free dinner so you'd work later, great if you don't have a family, or a life. Lots of meetings, discussions are always taken offline; so you'll have meetings to have more meetings; will keep your wheels spinning. Life is good as a code churner, no accountability, no system architect. Realistic nay sayers are considered negative, so always answer with "Yes, I'll take care of it".

Kontras

Senior executives can't make simple decisions and makes empty promises. No sales traction, no new customers, and lost lots of old ones. Unsustainable and unsupportable product; developers write code in a vacuum without documentation. Executives can't plan past a paper bag, can't plan past next week. You'll burn excess PTO, this is normal as you can't take days off with too much stuff to do.

Pros

InnoPath had signficant potential in the mobile space. It has a relatively strong presence on the carrier side as well as the handset side. It also has reasonable IP & dedicated employees. It has potential which it needs to exploit.

Kontras

The company is driven from the top by the CEO. He is a complete micro-manager, even though he claims that he wants to let go. Additionally, he has a temper which has manifested itself on many occasions. The exec staff is not cohesive & tends to be disfunctional as a result. Because the fear that the CEO instills in the organization, his VPs are unwilling to stand up to do the correct thing for the business. The CEO also believes that he is a subject matter expert in all areas - engineering, marketing, HR, sales, and operations. He has overrriden his organization multiple times with little information; this has sometimes had disastrous results. The exec staff, particularly the CTO, is quite political. The CEO allows this type of behavior and on occasion fosters it. ICs tend to be demoralized because of years of promises of doing an IPO. Fostering this have been promises of salary increases but most people have not seen an increase in 3+ years.
