Pros

parking is adequate. The people rock! The people have always been the only good part of Skillsoft. The people are the only reason I work here.

Cons

You know that scene from Titanic when the orchestra plays on while the ship is going down? Picture the current investors/executive team as the string section. They are playing on while every person I know is looking for the best way off the ship. We all know a layoff is coming and we are doing what we have to do to take care of our families. (Yeah you know, families, that thing that is important to PEOPLE) Everyone is interviewing. The orchestra plays on. The string section has no clue that we are boarding the life boats, or they have taken a calculated risk that surely we won't take ALL the lifeboats. Sadly, when and if the orchestra wraps up, the only hope for survival for the string section is to fight for a section of that wreckage that Kate Winslet scored. And let's face it, if Kate Winslet won't let Leonardo Decaprio up on the wreckage, she sure as hell won't be giving the string section any real estate.
