Pros

The interview process itself was pretty straightforward with the last round being more of a formality for me to ask any and all questions to clear up the role which was a breath of fresh-air compared to constant bombardment of questions with other companies. The recruiter themselves were wonderful by getting higher compensation than originally advertised. Onboarding has been very generous with time which is nice since I haven't had much rest between companies. I love how supportive everyone has been so far during this time. Speaking with everyone so far on my team, I can see lots of people who have been in Workiva a long time which speaks volume to the culture and work/life balance that can be seen here. I've spoken even with other Workivans who have been in different functions which is a testament to how Workiva fosters personal growth. It seems that they make sure that you find your perfect fit here which is amazing. I am looking forward to the rest of my career here as a Workivan and to work where I work best!

Cons

I have no cons that I can think of at this time.

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
