      Pros

      - Mission drive: the organization really believes in helping people with their money - Paid maternity and paternity leave - Staff gets Fridays off before Memorial Day and Labor Day as well as their birthdays

      Cons

      - Founder still involved and regularly makes unreasonable demands on the marketing department. - The marketing department's culture is broken: Deadlines are unrealistic and bad actors within the department drive down morale.

      Given how critical the Marketing team’s role is to our collective success and how important a positive working environment is for your individual success, I sincerely thank you for taking the time to help us improve. In an effort to better understand your feedback and make adjustments as needed, I invite you to speak with our new Chief Marketing Officer, Letha Steffey, and me in-person regarding your experience. However, if you prefer to remain anonymous (which I hope you won’t), I understand and thank you again for your feedback and for giving us insight into how we can improve.

      Pros

      - Great team from department head down - Collaboration is encouraged - Self-starter culture with good room for side projects - "See something, say something" approach allows questioning methodology without a feeling of personal attacks or "dumb questions" and enables team members to support each other in a safe environment - Work from home

      Cons

      - Executive leadership does not know what they want - Consistent turnover in C-Suite leads to departments acting like small internal companies rather than part of a larger system - Limited permission access for team members means that any absence or time-off can lead to a backlog of deployments
