Pros

Neat office space no micromanagement flawless start - very organized first day Training about the company Helpful team

Cons

Extremely high turnover - management is at guilt because there is not focus on the staff. there is no connection what so ever. The company is growing and the management attitude is that the already shrunk team will phase no problems what so ever because each company is just another "sum formula." The processes are outdated and very manual. The accounting system is Oracle but an outdated version. So much of your time will be spent on edition raw data only to copy some info to another excel file. no camaraderie in the team and everyone is looking to leave right now. The company is growing and is obviously preparing to increase its worth and prepare to be bought. It's a huge startup in the CEO's mind but it has grown too big to function as one. All what I say is about the HQ Accounting team. Other departments are hopefully very happy. The senior management has symbols of their political party out in the open. In a company build by an immigrant and in an office environment with many more people from all races, this particular political party is reprieved as rather offensive.

Pros

Hmmm. Cannot think of any, maybe 1 or 2 select people. Is it a good product, maybe. but limited in audience.

Cons

Where do I start? Executive leadership that, granted have the abilities to be smart, but are stuck in their own bubble, that they can't get out of . Company is top heavy and actually, worker heavy. Inefficiencies all over the place.

Public company run like a family owned business

Pros

The workforce is enthusiastic and really cares. People will stop what they are doing to help you solve a problem. Very little politics or turf wars. People are smart, funny and contribute to a relaxed atmosphere. Some of the best people I've worked with I found here.

Cons

Senior leadership (CEO and his direct reports) are at a crossroad. They know they need to bring in experienced industry people to help grow the company. When they bring in sharp people, they insist that the new employees conform to "the Cvent way" of doing business. No real ability to shape or influence the direction of the company. A small group of original founders run the company like a family owned business. Terrible reputation in the supplier community. I was embarrassed to admit that I worked there because of the company's poor reputation.
