Thank you for your feedback and advice. As you know, we have begun working on formal processes and internal systems to support these processes. It is still a work in progress, but I think we're headed in the right direction. As for expressing frustration, you should know I am frustrated with myself. Rather than expressing my frustration, I will do a better job at asking for help before reaching that point.

Outlier has been successful for over 25 years. The President and Lead Developer just rewrote the Inspection reporting software and the latest version is now ready to enter the market. It is a great place to get in on the ground floor of a re-emerging technology company. The potential for growth is huge. Cool people to work with and an upscale office in Blue Ash. Great culture with flex schedule and folks who want to work hard.
Cons
Must have strong internal work ethic as there is a lot of autonomy. I think that is a positive, but if not coming with that mentality will not be successful.

Thank you for your review and positive outlook on the future. We spent quite a bit of time rewriting the software and rethinking our approach culture. We still have more work to do on both fronts, but we’re making great progress.
The work is rewarding because it ultimately helps to protect innocent people and promote public health.
This is not a boring place to work because each week is unique and the company is constantly trying new things.
The team is great. Everyone is talented, hard working, responsible and kind.
Cons
It can be a major grind at times. There is tons of work to be done and the company is operating with a skeleton crew.
The compensation/benefits package is less than what bigger companies can offer.

Thank you for your feedback and advise. As you know we are working to hire more staff. The biggest challenge is finding good people who will mess well with the Team. As for the "major grind at times," I encourage you to take more PTO and to let me know before you get too burnt out.
