Pros

GovX is a place where no matter your level in the organization, you can make an impact and see that imact each day. It is nimble and full of smart people who are driving to not only build a great company, but also to support a great mission. That mission is serving those who have served our community as first responders, in the military and related government employees. It is sophisticated for the age of the company with a lot of analytics that are open to the entire organization. At the same time, it is young and nimble, where C suite managers are available to all employees. Employees at all levels are challenged to find ways to contribute and grow the mission and the business.

Cons

I don't think this is specific to GovX by any means, but if you want to work in ecommerce be prepared for long hours around holiday sales, promotions etc.

Pros

I have loved my time at GOVX so far. I am surrounded by smart coworkers, and have had good technical challenges to work through that have grown me as a Software Engineer. The culture is great here, and people genuinely seem to love their jobs. It's awesome to work on a product that you believe in, and know is having a positive impact.

Cons

The health insurance is great for individual plans. But very expensive for family plans. Would love to see the plans become more affordable.

Pros

I enjoyed the actual job, my direct manager, and the team.

Cons

Policies are put in place to either encourage people to leave or to micro-manage them. If you make a single mistake, it is not used as a learning lesson, but instead, you are put on an immediate PIP. I've never been at a company that fires and manages like this before, and it is extremely worrisome. The turnover is absolutely insane, except for the top leadership, which should be a red flag. Although it became a great social aspect of the job, it was all done by employees with no help from leadership to help with the culture.
