Pros

People-first, always. And you can feel it. The leadership team strives to make the company a place where employees want to spend their time and can develop and grow. Respect for people is a priority, along with the company’s performance and customer impact. You feel it from the CEO and across the entire team. Genuinely a great place to work. Yes, we work hard, and its not always easy, but we make progress.

Cons

Success requires dedication and hard work. Not a place to kick back - but a great place to learn, grow and develop yourself and your career.

Pros

Remote work and flexibility Size of company is great - not too big, not too small Great coworkers (aside from the leadership)

Cons

- Horrible psychological work environment. The senior leaders in my department were absolutely terrifying and incredibly nitpicky, rather than encouraging and supportive to their people. - Career growth is a joke at Workiva, and leaders make it clear by their actions (and at times, words) that it's not a priority. I remember sitting on a department call where my VP said, "Growth is not getting a promotion at Workiva," and the context in which she said it made it feel cold, patronizing, and disheartening. Departmental calls were often uncomfortable and totally deflating. - Extremely unrealistic and very subjective standards - No manager accountability - People constantly live in fear, but the work flexibility and "great place to work" facade keep employees stuck in a toxic loop - When they get the slightest whiff of unhappiness, they push you out. I've seen it time and time again (which then creates a toxic fear culture) - Constant gaslighting
