Pros

- Excellent culture - very welcoming, enthusiastic, and supportive. You can literally reach out to anyone and they will be happy to help. It has always felt more like a family. - Flexible work arrangements - you can work from anywhere! We've had a lot of digital nomads throughout the years, and have people in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and the US. The annual company meetups are a blast as well. - Opportunity for growth - because it is still quite a small company, there is a lot of opportunity for growth from within. - You are not just a number! I have worked for some very large companies in the past and it is very easy to go unnoticed and unappreciated. But here, I can reach out to our CEO directly, and have a very candid chat, and always feel supported in anything I need, or any ideas I bring to the table.

Cons

- Not a whole lot here, honestly - Growth can take some time - because it's a small company, it can take a while to progress, as it is much more reliant upon market growth. However, this is also great because you can make so much more of an impact as opportunities become available.

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.
