      Pros

      I like everybody at the company and we have the freedom to do what we think is right. There's a lot of trust, and we take calculated risks pretty often. We're careful about adding new people, and that keeps a strong culture that cuts down on bureaucracy and policy. From a consulting point of view you get to work with large, big name clients without having to travel Monday - Thursday. We take on interesting work that's important to our clients.

      Cons

      We're small and growing fast, which means we're all wearing many hats and constantly stretching. If you're looking for a title, a rigid structure, or to just put in your time for a guaranteed 2-3% raise every year; then we're not for you. We're also not a fit if you're looking to put in a few years in consulting for the resume bump.

      We owe it to our current team to make sure the people we add are also great. High performers can be trusted to make good decisions, and people like you need that to exercise creativity and autonomy. You're right about it not getting any easier to keep doing great so we'll keep working hard. If you think of anything we can do to improve, please let us know! We're on this growth path together.

      Keeps my interest with constantly evolving challenges both at the client sites and internally

      Pros

      It's energizing to be surrounded by high-performing individuals who are driven to do well by his/her client. There has been a naturally forming culture of support and camaraderie, which I've found to be very helpful when facing challenging times at my client site. Leadership is outwardly focused on the individual trajectory of each of the associates, and that is backed up by their actions/investments.

      Cons

      Nothing jumps out in my mind at this point. There are a number of efforts underway to continue refining the Propeller brand, web presence, and office space - which is indicative of the scrappy startup culture. So, I suppose folks looking for a lot glitz in this regard might be underwhelmed for a few months while these areas are established.

      Part naturally formed by bringing together talented people, part by design by keeping who we are and how we express it a priority, our culture is what makes us...us. Even as we grow, Propeller is committed to supporting our team so that however long you're with us (and we hope it's a while!), you can learn and grown. Supporting our team internally frees Associates up to spend their brain power on solving client problems, which is probably why you got into this work in the first place. When sometime does come to mind, please let us know because we want to make this place stay great for you and everyone.

      Pros

      Propeller Resources is a collection of smart, driven, compassionate problem solvers who are committed to delivering high quality work and are genuinely fun to be around. The leadership team is extremely impressive and it shows in the thoughtful way they are approaching growth opportunities while at the same time staying focussed on creating a unique and fulfilling company culture.

      Cons

      I haven't had any challenges or issues. Prospective candidates should be prepared for a 4-6 week recruiting process

      Thank you for providing your insight. Prospects do take 4-6 weeks (and sometimes more) because our recruiting team is made up of Associates who are primarily working at client sites. It's good you mention that so candidates know what to expect. Our culture is integral to our success and it's great to hear you feel like you are challenged and get to have fun. It's not easy to grow quickly, especially when you hire really talented, ambitious people who want to learn, grow, and be a part of something great. We try to do right by our team in this way. If you think of any ways we can improve, please let us know!
