Pros
Mindgrub’s management and leadership have done an amazing job bootstrapping and growing the organization from 1 person in a basement to nearly 100 team members, while garnering top clients, lots of recognition and landing on the Inc. 5000 for six years running. We have increased position compensation on average by 10% per year and have built outstanding capabilities such as Web, Mobile, User Experience, Design, Project/Product Management, QA Testing and more recently HCM, Managed Services, Branding, Marketing, AR/VR and now even Team Augmentation and Robotics. We have incredible developers, designers and marketers and our teamwork and work product is unmatched in the industry.
Cons
Even with transparency and cascading communications, not every employee is going to understand business and economics and appreciate the fine work of our leadership and the long game we are playing. With effectively 0% unemployment in the Tech Industry, and funded companies that can over compensate, it will be increasingly difficult to keep our turnover low and retain all of our talent.
