Pros

Macromanagement, yay! - have intiative and you will thrive! There's no nit-picky protocols here. We have all been hired because we are capable and are left to excell at our jobs, and action whatever needs to be done. I walk into work and am astounded at the brilliant minds around me. The company and product is always moving forward, changing and bettering itself. This innovative attitude of 'everything's usually possible, so let's see how it can be done' is refreshing.

Cons

There is a work hard, play hard culture at JobAdder. We all work together to achieve above and beyond what we probably should do, but then the team is cohesive enough to enjoy a solid 'relax' together at the end to recharge enough to slog it out again. This can be a pro and a con depending on your energy for the day. Don't work here if you want an unchanging, stagnant, predictable position.

Pros

Small enough team that people mostly got along. Base salary was not bad.

Cons

Very limited voice. Constant fear of being fired due to how management would interact with you. They did not fully understand who did what in the team. Did not show equal appreciation to all parties involved in releasing a quality product. Alcohol consumption was very encouraged. You would be shamed if you did not drink. Strict 8:30 - 5:30 work day. I am fine with the length of the work day but flexibility of start and end time would have been nice. Benefits were lacking in quality and quantity. That would be fine if the company gave a plus elsewhere such as schedule but it did not.

Thanks for your review. You are right in that cultures can vary from office to office, so we have worked hard to ensure everyone at JA understands our core company culture. This includes all employees coming to Sydney at least once a year to get to know the whole team. In the year since you were there a lot has changed and we are extremely happy with the team we have in the US now. Thanks again for your input and all the best.
