Pros
I just want to start off with telling everyone reading this that I still work here. A co-worker sent me a review that was recently posted. After reading all of the reviews, I feel responsible to defend a company that has treated me so well. I will also tell you that I am not in the Sales department, so I really can't verify a lot of the bold and obviously ornery reviews made by disgruntled former employees about that particular department. - I get paid well for what I do and my manager never stops trying to get me more raises every year. They really reward your efforts here. - The employees that do their job and do it well are the happiest employees I've ever seen. As long as you get your stuff done and accomplished well. You are free to come and go, drink a beer at your desk. But do not misunderstand, that doesn't mean you can just take off on your second day, or even month of working here...this is a trust that MUST be earned. - I have never been micromanaged. Anthony (CEO) is outstanding, involved, and works extremely hard. He is always present, which can not be said about most CEO's. That doesn't mean he micromanages. If former employees are complaining, it's because they sucked at their job. We all have goals to meet and tasks to accomplish. Get your stuff done, and you are left alone. - the location and office is great. Again, if people are complaining it's because they don't clean up after themselves. We aren't the cleaners. Clean your own desk, cleaners aren't allowed to touch them, besides the trashcans. Weird smells and crazy nasty carpets? No idea what they mean. In the midst of their complaining they forgot to mention that we are provided with free food and drinks, along with (pretty much) monthly happy hours and company events. - Have to work overtime? they buy you dinner. Want to work hard and be recognized and grow? this is the place to be. I can have a good laugh with all of management. but when it's time to work. its time to work. if you want to work here, you need to understand when its time to have fun and when it's time to work. We don't have the time to babysit your every moan and groan. - I've had so many great experiences here that it was like I was reading about a different company on this page. Truly heartbreaking, and I just don't understand why there are so many. My only guess is that people who succeed in this company (actually work hard) don't leave, and have no real reason to log on here. The people making these reviews are disgruntled people who don't understand the true meaning of working hard for a company that is definitely going places. - I know most of the former employees that wrote these passed reviews and I for one can say, that most lacked something. - Our software and the minds behind it are top-notch. I truly feel privileged to work with such smart and fun people. - I can make this pros list go on for days. But let's move on with the Cons.
Cons
- Like I mentioned at the beginning. I'm not in sales. But my common sense tells me that you shouldn't be starting a new employee with an unattainable first month goal. Tapper it along with training. There is nothing worse than destroying someones morale when they first start. - If people in sales are truly not getting proper guidance and no innovations have been made to better this workflow...What we waiting for???
