Pros

OG's culture is not just some words on paper, it is real and on display everyday. Respect, ownership/accountability and drive to to do what is best is inherent in everyone I work with. The recruiting & onboarding process is amazing and greatly helps in getting you to feel connected to the company and the team even in this virtual world.

Cons

It can feel like drinking from a fire hose at times but it also keeps things from getting boring. You need to be someone that knows how to, and can, balance work and personal life

Pros

I interviewed at OpenGov and the experience was great. They have a very structured process in place, and at every step of the way, I've had people that were genuine and transparent with me. They are truly working on providing the best work culture in Gov SaaS.

Cons

Not really a con but the interview process was a little long, from the initial interview to getting a verbal offer/letter.
