Mhh. I was never very impressed.
It started when they initially refused to credit RepRap with all the open-source stuff they included in MakerBot. They then proceeded to bury the credit when they finally gave it.
They claimed they were putting a lot of unique IP in, but realistically in v1 it was just a different case.
Ultimately MakerBot tried to cash in on a trend, by taking a lot of open source design and building a product around it - but failing to do so in a open friendly fashion, and not understanding how to do product management.
