Rough Patch in early 2014, but Solid Company and People

Pros

It has been a great experience working for Colibrium for the past 1.5 yrs. The company has a small start-up atmosphere, but with a solid product-based backbone. - I have a lot of respect for all of the people in the company. Colibrium has an incredibly talented and intelligent group of people, and that has always impressed me. Coming from other large corporations, it was a refreshing to be working around so many driven people. - The company has competitive compensation and great benefits. - The management have shown to be great leaders and work well with all types of employees. I am not just lead by my managers, but I have also become friends with them. Mutual respect among all positions. - There is great opportunity within the company. Especially since the company is small, you can pretty quickly get noticed and work directly with senior management. - I am challenged, and I also have some freedom to try my hand in other projects. - There is not a direct, predictable path for career growth within the company. I think that is a positive aspect because it allows for people to grow towards their strengths and not be limited due to an existing path that all must follow. This leaves room for high growth opportunity for both career and salary.

Cons

I'm not going to beat around the bush here: the company did have some financial issues in early 2014. There were many people laid off and others that voluntarily left. It was a stressful time for everyone. The company has since rebounded, and everything seems to be getting back on track. There is an element of risk working for a company with recent volatility, but that also means there is opportunity. I was here before and after this rough patch, and I would not have many cons to mention on how Colibrium's business is conducted.

Solid core; weak surface. Excellent do well; others do not

Pros

The people, the people, the people (oh and the people) -- I have built a lasting portfolio of network contacts since being there; and have casual IM conversations with practically everyone on my work contact list. Flexibility in "core hours" and a work from home day option are a huge plus (also a floor to ceiling filled break room with drinks/snacks). While hours can build up, some managers will work with you on tradeoffs with working from home or leaving a little early to compensate. I actually ended up working overtime because I enjoyed working on some of the project tasks I had. Small office environment with stacked director/c suite means that the owners and upper echelon individuals are available for conversation/ feedback. I IM with the CIO and have gone to a conference with the CEO. Accountability -- people who underperform do not stay which does incur some poor glassdoor reviews, but it means that the employees there are people who want to be there and who Colibrium wants to be there.

Cons

To really grow, you have to elbow your way into opportunity. There are possibilities, but one must be driven to push himself to expand into those roles/ opportunities (and one of the managers frowns on that). Morale and culture have been rocky (early 2014) which isn't expected to last into summer with some of the changes. As you can see by some reviews, things have been fluid for a month or two which people are unhappy about. I know there have been executive decisions which will resolve all these issues by June or so; but that period was a valley for a company. There are small company challenges like no education stipend and sometimes project work takes priority over the non-billable. The company's movement to function as something close to lean has been a very slow progress. The industry of healthcare insurance has been slow to pick up IT and was hurt financially by the ACA rollout October 2013. Most of that pain reared its head around Feb/March -- so the client's industry slowed vendor Colibrium down a little bit. Overall, the clients have been a bit 'surly' and the management of expectations went haywire as the issuers panicked throughout obamacare implementation.

Excellent Work Perks, Great People, Awesome Benefits

Pros

100% paid health/medical insurance, competitive salaries, AWESOME work from home policy (recently switched from one day a week to three days a week-which means only two days of driving to work!). Fully stocked kitchen with free drinks and free food, casual work environment (jeans every day!), and the people are great.

Cons

The company hit a rough patch in January because they grew way too fast in 2013. While they did have to let some go, the current employees with the company now are the "cream of the crop" and good things are ahead.
