Pros

There are none! Unless you consider a paycheck a pro but that's included by default and you can get that anywhere. This place has nothing to offer anybody.

Cons

They don't really care about technology, and worse their knowledge of it is outdated so I don't see any chance of them surviving in their current space. They're dead in the water! Management is completely clueless. Every department is like the blind leading the blind and the left hand never knows what the right hand is doing. Tech projects are poorly conceived and even more poorly defined by people who don't understand the technology at play. Whats worse is that there is absolutely zero transparency and everything is micro managed by the wrong people. Company morale and culture is very poor. Working for Live365 will make you feel like an underachiever because management doesn't know what to do with your talents. Its a dead-end career with no real opportunity for advancement or setting yourself apart in the tech space. Working here will make you feel like your career is being lead straight into the dumpster by a bunch of donkeys (I'm sorry, but it is true). Please, if you have any talent or career aspirations I beg of you, DO NOT WORK HERE. Live365 will not survive, they will go out of business.

Pros

Was a great building with fantastic CS and Sales co-workers.

Cons

Well.. We all just got laid off so there is that... What led to one of the first and premier online radio companies to fold? Lack of vision, paranoia, horrendous CEO leadership -- just to name a few.

Pros

Really good folks in the trenches who work hard and want the company to succeed. You leave at a reasonable hour because there is no structure.

Cons

Zero transparency. Leadership does not use the Live365 products or understand the service themselves. Not one lead has any business being in the music space, or even web space. A thousand vague ideas coming from every direction but no organizational structure to finish one project. The products that are approved have no tangible ROI, most new initiatives are just pathetic. No support or resources for an unreasonable workload, "just do it." No thanks, no raises, no fun.
