Pros

And you’re right, if you want to work on something cool and prove the business case for it, the sky really is the limit. Glad you’re part of this team!

Business Outlook

Pros

You are given the opportunity to do great work with as much or as little supervision or guidance as you need. Transparency is high and it really feels like you are being encouraged and empowered to make an impact. It is an exciting time to be at this company, we are having fun and getting things done!

Cons

We have a lot to do and there is a lot of necessary change happening, does not work for everyone. Some team members are wedded to the past and finding it hard to move on and look at things differently.

Great people with room for improvement

Business Outlook

Pros

They really practice what they preach here - feeling like you have a forum for transparency and honesty is #1. Day to day operations are improving month over month and the work/life balance is great. If you can go with the flow of a startup culture and you're willing to roll up your sleeves and go the extra mile - this place is awesome.

Cons

Non-sales departments tend to get the shaft in terms of culture/recognition. Sometimes communication lacks with regard to changes/system rollouts and that gets frustrating. No talks of career paths (although we're told it's on the way) for non-sales roles unless you really push the subject with your manager.
