Monks reviews

great culture, people, projects. You can grow here

I’ll start with: I was there for 5 years and understand it's not for everyone. It’s easy to be a critic, but it’s just as easy to be complementary and love the hell out of this place depending on what you're looking for. Having lived/worked out of a couple offices and traveled to many others for work trips, I got the opportunity to understand it on a deeper level and from a few perspectives. Some days made it rough to stay sane, but all in all, the good far outweighs the bad. The Senior Mgmt/Board are direct and have high expectations, but they instill a great amount of trust in middle management to get the job done. The amount of flexibility in time, schedule, approach, etc gives people the opportunity to have the job mold to them instead of the other way around. It’s an environment that naturally caters to personalities that are different and creative. And the owners are actually great people with great intentions for their staff and they’ve put the work in to prove it. Yeah, pay is competitive, benefits competitive, client lists are amazing, but it’s the people that win you over time and time again. 100% would recommend, but be prepared to be open and direct and don’t wait for others to tell you when or how to do things (role depending), you can find great happiness and success here for many years to come. “If it’s so great, why’d you leave?” I needed a break to focus on family, but I would 100% recommend this place.
