Pros
- Compass puts culture at the forefront of every vision and initiative and it definitely shows. The collaborative energy makes work feel less like a job and more like a team you are excited to be a part of.
- The principles and leadership encourage a spirit of entreprenurial thining that is super exciting and makes you feel like you are making a difference in a fast moving company.
- Every day is a new and different day which keeps things interesting, exciting and to say you learn something new every day, is an understatement. If you are looking for a place where your creativity and ideas are encouraged, this is definitely a company to look into.
I have worked here for 2 years and really do love it - the people, my managers, leadership, the space and the work. It is definitely not for those who like to coast and just show up - if you want to push yourself and grow within a hyper-growth, start-up environment, then Compass is your place.
- Compass also encourages lateral movement if you are looking to switch careers or not sure where you want to go with your career. It feels like they really care about the individual finding their right path at Compass and helping them get there.
- The expectations of people managers is unlike what I have seen at any other company. It is amazing to know you have a manager that is looking out for your growth and development and that they really do care.
- The benefits are really progressive and are awesome!
Cons
Sometimes we grow faster than we can hire the right people so workloads fluctuate. So you have to be willing to put in the work when and where is needed to make sure your department and team are successful.
Just like any start-up, change is the only constant so you have to be ready to go with the flow and embrace some ambiguity.
