Interesting & Exciting Start-Up Culture

Pros

The company is growing at a pace unlike anything I've ever seen in the business world. Watching the organization consistently hit goals month over month is fun and creates an exciting workplace as employees celebrate the monthly successes. The growth also helps to create tons of new jobs, for both new candidates and internal candidates alike. There is plenty of mobility within Pax8 and those who want to work hard can move up quickly. Most of the executive staff, especially the C-level employees, are brilliant, interesting people who take a genuine interest in the lives of their employees and the employee satisfaction and morale across the company.

Cons

One of the biggest downfalls is the lack of training. There is training for sales and other new hires during onboarding, but that seems to be where it ends. Because the company is growing so quickly, employees are often promoted to a manager or director level with ZERO guidance or training on how to be a successful manager and represent the company. This is contributing to employee turnover and it needs to be said over and over again that being good at your job does not translate directly into being a good manager. The company has a whole group supposedly dedicated to training but I have found their delivery to be seriously lacking. Another con - if you're not in sales or marketing, prepare to feel like you're basically invisible. Be ready to sit through monthly meetings praising the same people over and over for basically doing their job (i.e. attending marketing shows, hitting sales quota, etc). All other groups are pretty well left out of company recognition or special events to celebrate success. Constantly changing initiatives make it hard to have a clear direction and focus at times. By trying to do too much at once, everyone gets overwhelmed and things start falling through the cracks.

Pros

Insurance is paid. Most of the staff is real friendly. Cheryl at the front desk is a peach.

Cons

Turn and burn company! Provide minimal training to make A LOT of pointless phone calls and expect to preform hard out of the gate with no knowledge. If you don't have previous IT/Software experience, don't waste your time. Awesome if you love putting in long hours, making worthless calls, and hanging out with bros all day.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I'm sorry to hear that your experience here was a negative one. Our training team has worked diligently to built a robust on-boarding program so its unfortunate that you felt that the 2 week Sales training orientation was minimal. If you have additional feedback we'd be happy to take this offline and discuss further to improve the experience for all.
