Pros

The company provides a lot of balance to work and life for the most part. There is also a focus on providing a comfortable working environment.

Cons

Communication from various levels of management can and will change within a week, sometimes even a single day. This makes it very hard to stay on even footing with what your goals are, which then translates into some somewhat unpleasant transactions with coworkers, and even at times clients.

Thank you for your feedback and review. I am sorry to hear your experience does not match our intention of being a great place to work. We are a fast growing company, and this can result in several changes, sometimes referred to as growing pains. As we continue to grow, we strive to avoid silos and to maintain our focus on relationships and collaboration across the company at all levels in the organization. We certainly do not want an “Us vs. Them” mentality, and would love to understand your concerns in more detail. Please feel free to reach out to your manager or HR Business partner to share your experience and ideas. Thank you again for taking the time to write this review.

Pros

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Cons

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

The pay is decent compared to the market and the tech is solid.

Cons

The company is abandoning their strategy of "partner first" and is doing their best to become a worse version of Paychex/ADP... Every decision that comes from the top seems so disconnected with reality. Turnover is a huge problem. In just 12 months I've had turnover in my director, channel partner managers, channel support, partner services, RVP, SDR, and more. It's impossible to get anything done when every position around you is a revolving door. Everyone I speak with across lines of business has a similar story. It is a mess across the entire org.
