Pros

Empowerly has been truly one of the most formative companies I've been at. Though hectic at times like any startup, it's a lot of hard work and good work. - Without Empowerly, I wouldn't have been able to dip my toes into multiple departments and leadership was very supportive of wearing multiple hats - I also learned a lot of leadership and core skills - Colleagues are brilliant, some of the best people I've worked with - Pay is competitive and market rate for a growth stage startup, with opportunities to move between departments Being here genuinely accelerated my career, and I'm grateful for Empowerly for giving me this opportunity

Cons

Like any startup, you will work long hours and be on call on weekends. But at the end of the day, they are transparent about the nature of the work and you're not going in blind. The support from managers and colleagues really make the work enjoyable no matter how hard it is.

Pros

Paychecks arrived on time, and the software we sold was reliable.

Cons

• Sales reps repeatedly submitted incorrect information to prospects, with only brief corrections and no lasting improvement. • Repeated mistakes across the team were ignored instead of properly addressed. • Those in charge failed to track problems or create solutions, allowing the same errors to continue. • No meaningful coaching or correction followed mistakes.
