I joined about a year ago, and the only reason I did so was because most of the executive team, including the CEO, was replaced about a year prior to me joining. The new CEO is Blake Irving, who seems like a great guy (I had dinner with him a couple months ago) and did an AMA on Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/23v7f3/hi_im_blake_irv... . He also wrote an open letter to the FCC in support of net neutrality: https://garage.godaddy.com/godaddy/news/net-neutrality-ameri... . A lot of GoDaddy's senior leadership team these days is made up of people from Microsoft and Yahoo.
I would not have joined GoDaddy in its previous form, but it has made serious improvements to be a great tech company over the last couple years.
