Pros

In my 13 years, I have never worked for a company that makes you feel like part of the team so quickly. During the first 10 minutes of the interview, I knew I had to work here. It was not your standard "grilling" of questions you normally get. Instead it felt like a casual conversation, a group of people getting to know each other. You are asked questions to make sure you are a technical and culture fit, but it is done in such a way that you don't even remember you are being interviewed. People Services (HR) really understands that interviews are a two-way street, and they want to make sure you get time to ask your questions, and that you fully understand the position and the culture. I have never had so much contact from People Services about a status update in the past. Most places you won't hear anything after a interview, till they have an offer. Bandwidth reaches out to you every step of the way. The company and People Services strongly believe in, making sure people are happy so that they stay. Any concerns are listened to. Everyone that I have meet since being an employee loves their job, believes in the company and what they are doing. The company really shows they trust and believe in their employees too. Some of the benefits offered are just not heard of at any other company.

Cons

The starting days off is a bit less then what I am use to. However you do get more days of PTO after your first year.

Pros

For me, two things set this company apart from other places. One is the amazing new technologies we are developing. Very forward thinking, always making sure we take the innovations towards a fruitful future. The second thing is the way they run the company. Unlike any other place I've seen, they make sure their people are taken care of. In so many ways, and at all times. People Services constantly working to provide all sorts of fun events and learning opportunities. The CEO is blessed with the gift to inspire others to better themselves, a truly genuine cool guy. The rest of the executive team is ambitious and hungry to succeed, they seem to be thinking ahead and making good decisions. Very open communication, everyone in the company is fully approachable.

Cons

No bonuses or profit sharing.

Pros

This Company won Best Places to Work this year for a reason. Every year the company asks for feedback and addresses areas that can improve and continues to do the things we like. The work is interesting and fast paced and the company is profitable and growing. Benefits are awesome. You can work with people and managers you really like and have fun too. The CEO is the most stand-up and smart guy you will ever meet. He is well respected and sincerely liked by the people I know at work. Just look at their customer list, their revenue growth and their Best Places to Work status - they are legit.

Cons

You have to want to be in an entrepreneurial environment. This is both exciting and disruptive and you have to like that kind of work place and you have to want to be a part of something that is innovating and growing fast and sometimes chaotic. Not a place for you if you want a 9-5 job with lots of structure and no surprises.
