Pros

• The culture lives up to what’s advertised. People are happy, customer-centric, and genuinely want to connect with each other to build something awesome. • The seamless flow between customer-facing departments. We’re under the same umbrella and are able to pivot between areas as needed. • Nice Days are fantastic, and it is extremely cool that I was granted some on day 1. • All employees have an "Employee Spotlight" distributed so everyone gets the opportunity to get to know them! • Welcome packet that included AskNicely socks (!!) plus a sweet backpack. • Lunch with Executives program and general accessibility to leadership has been enormously refreshing. • The December Town Hall had some very difficult news that, if presented the wrong way, had the potential to cause panic among employees. I think that the news was done with a great deal of care to contain any negative feelings from the employee base. I thought it was awesome that it was presented in the same breath as the game plan for what we’re going to do to avoid any disruptions. We are clearly solutions-oriented as a company. (Related: Cool that we have such regular check-ins with leadership including a weekly All-Hands and monthly Town Hall) • Teija (Director of People) lives and breathes culture within the team and is continuously nurturing a sense of closeness which is especially challenging right now. Every time I turn around, there is something new and exciting on the calendar. • The company feels very much alive. There is so much growth from exciting initiatives and it feels like the company is taking a new breath every time we shift and pivot. It is thrilling! • Annual personal development stipend (HUGE bonus that we have a list of suggestions for how to use it so it doesn’t go to waste) and a WFH stipend to make sure the employee base is always growing and developing, as well as staying sane in these isolated times. • Each member of our team has a concurrent project in motion to enhance our department that we are each very passionate about. It is wonderful to do 30-60-90 goal planning and considering a project I wanted to lead. • I feel very valued by my team and I feel my voice matters. My team is astoundingly awesome. • The product is so freaking cool, so flexible, and makes our customers HAPPY! • Commuter benefits that will save me close to $3K/year when we return to the office. • That absolutely stunning office that I cannot wait to work in one day! (HUGE bonus: dogs!)

Cons

• We could hugely benefit from higher-powered computers. (The good news is that there is already an initiative in motion to upgrade computers) • I am still quite new so still learning many things about the company (not really a con, but good for context)
