Pros
I have enjoyed my years at Propeller and plan to stay for many more years! My colleagues are genuinely kind, engaged in their work, supportive of their teammates, and a pleasure to work with. I am supported by my direct manager and the firm leadership overall. They support professional growth through regular check-ins, consistent performance evaluations, learning and development opportunities, stretch assignments, and more. I feel supported personally, which is valuable as a full-time working parent. The compensation is competitive. Also, the benefits are great and expanding each year. For example, we recently added a sabbatical program for employees that have been at Propeller for five years. I am excited by the growth, for me as an individual and for the firm overall.
Cons
For some, the pace of change at Propeller may be challenging. We are rapidly evolving as a company, requiring frequent pivoting, new systems, etc. As we grow, we also lose some of the “everyone knows everyone” feeling I experienced when I started, but that is inevitable. We haven’t fully realized all the company’s goals (such as for DEI), but I believe leadership is still committed to moving in the right direction.
