Pros

There are A LOT of extremely talented people to learn from. They are accessible which is the good news. The founder and CEO has a track record of success and he is willing to share the information he knows. Honestly, It's nice to look up to leadership here because one day I would like to start my own business.

Cons

There is a lot of pressure to perform

Pros

I was fortunate to start at FairWarning when the Managed Privacy Services unit was getting started and for 2 years had the opportunity to help grow and establish that line of the business. I had a wonderful experience growing both personally and professionally along with the business and expect FairWarning will continue to be successful. Overall, there is a great group of people working at FairWarning and opportunities to contribute to the product, customer success, and the shape of a growing organization. My experience at FairWarning often pushed the boundaries of what I thought I knew or could do, but in the end I always learned something about myself. I left the company to re-locate, but my experience will be a huge part of my career and future.

Cons

These are not really cons, but could be depending on your preferences. FairWarning is growing and change often comes quickly. Having worked previously at a large, more bureaucratic organization, FairWarning is certainly not that. There are times when there is not a clear path to follow, because the organization is growing into new territory. If you are energized by these kinds of challenges, you will do great.

Pros

Having been with FairWarning for many years, the biggest pro is that everybody at the company has an important job and it all matters. There is no coasting, there are no politics or cliques. Everything is driven by data and truth. The mission is clear and I am allowed to actually do the job I am good at. Work/life balance is highly encouraged- this is NOT a place where people are working 70 hours a week.

Cons

The pace is fast and the work is tough so it can be a challenge for new employees to get quickly up to speed.
