Amazing place to work!

Pros

They set you up for success right from the start. There is not only an amazing on-boarding process but their continued training and available coaching sets you up to be as successful as possible. The company culture here is nothing like I have experienced and will most likely not see it anywhere else. The transparency is great, you always know where the company stands and where you stand in your role. The perks are endless and you get to work with some pretty awesome people!

Cons

I haven't found one yet!

Pros

Extreme Ownership, Extreme Transparency and extreme fun. Trying ro communicate what our work environment is like to friends is difficult. Typically, they don't believe such a place exists and if it does, it can't be sustained. They are wrong on both counts. add in great pay, advancement opportunities and the ability to be in such a fast paced/growing company can't be matches. Count me among the "lucky ones!"

Cons

If i find one I will let you know.

Pros

Stu and the leadership team have a great vision and are doing all they can to make it all come true. All of this while managing through hyper-growth and an international expansion. Everyone is valued equally and respected for their contributions

Cons

No real cons, but rapid growth and change creates turbulence. If consistency is what you are looking for, this may not be the best place for you
