Pros

During my time there, I met the greatest people. Most aren't there anymore, but we keep in touch. I have hope for the support department, and the company as a whole, because of those who stayed but I fear they will never be given the power to effect any real change which is why I left.

Cons

The cons outnumber the pros by far. ABILITY Network is a perfect example of how not to run a software [as a service] company. A perfect case study in organizational behavior if you're looking for the worst environment for employees to fester in for 8+ hours a day. ABILITY encourages laziness and mediocrity despite preaching growth opportunities, collaboration, etc. It's a sham, the ABILITY support department is a sinking ship, proceed at your own risk.

Great company - amazing Marketing Department

Pros

Beautiful environment to work in. Great downtown location on the bus lines. Free soda, coffee, and fruit. Casual dress. All of the people in the company are awesome - smart but very friendly and helpful. I worked for ABILITY for 3.5 years, specifically in the Marketing Department. The employees in the Marketing department are amazing - incredibly smart, forward thinking, helpful and fun. I felt that we all cared about each other and had each other's backs. The VP of Marketing, John Porricolo (who I reported to the majority of my career there) was honestly the best boss I ever had. He encouraged me to grow as an employee and as an individual, and he believed in my talents and abilities. When I doubted myself he would encourage me - this allowed me to learn many new things and see what I was capable of. I learned SO much in my time at ABILITY - skills and knowledge that I am now applying at my new job.

Cons

ABILITY is a company going through a huge growth phase. They are in that "awkward" stage of going from a small company to a large one, so they are in the process of putting procedures and workflows solidly into place. Things move quickly, and can sometimes feel hectic, chaotic, or disorganized, but it's also really exhilarating and fun. You are never bored and there is rarely a dull moment! I believe the growth will also allow for opportunities to grow/move up in the company in the future.
