Pros

The people at OpenGov are some of the most hardworking, dedicated and down to Earth people I know. The mission is so critical and I love knowing that my hard work is rewarded and recognized.

Cons

Since it's a start up there are long hours and the occasional need to work on the weekends.

Pros

- Mission driven company with strong values - Amazing and diverse co-workers (the mission helps) - Investing to lead and win its market segment - Good products on-path to greatness - Modern tech stack & very strong engineering talent - Exec team that knows what it is doing - Amazing investors and board - Dramatic changes in work-life balance (opening an SF office, flexible working arrangements, a focus on quality in Eng so fire drills are less frequent, etc.)

Cons

- There has been some generational turnover with a few very early folks, who joined 4 years back moving on. This seems to be somewhat related to maturing our processes and building out of our org, architecture, etc. There is a lesser focus on individual heroics and more focus on team achievement and overall growth. - Company is investing in its middle management tier (developing our directors, managers, etc.) Most of them are quite good with some new leaders in sales and marketing, and some steady hands in engineering, but there are a few folks who cna use the development and I suspect it will take 3-6 months for this transitionary period.

Pros

OpenGov's mission draws people who are both very talented and awesome human beings. The company has strong leadership and rewards results with tremendous growth opportunity.

Cons

The fast pacing is not for everyone and OpenGov can become a very high pressure environment depending on situation.
