Stimulating environment and no dull moments

Pros

There is always a lot going on which can provide opportunities to try different things, and branch outside your comfort zone. People management processes have been leveled up, career planning is in place and training opportunities are there. While the company has grown a lot, it is still small enough that the Exec are visible and accessible. Overall the environment is one of encouragement and support, and you never feel abandoned or isolated. With offices in Wellington, Auckland and Seattle there are opportunities to relocate if you want. There are also opportunities with some subsidiary companies.

Cons

Not really a con, but you need to be prepared to work hard. That doesn't necessarily mean crazy hours, but don't expect to get away with slacking. At times comms from management have been absent, or sporadic, but there has been a real shift in that recently

Better than most anywhere.. but nowhere is perfect

Pros

One of the best companies I've worked for in the last 20 years without question. Strong culture of work-hard/play-hard, and a desire to be the best which encourages you to lift your game to match. Opportunities exist for those prepared to step up, put themselves out there and earn them (as it should be). Great encouragement is given to staff to build their community profile, which ultimately expands their own career experience. Something I've always appreciated is that nobody is above a good ribbing (especially management/execs), and everyone is ready to laugh at themselves, which creates a super friendly environment that doesn't tolerate inflated egos for long.

Cons

No company is perfect, and Provoke is no exception. Sometimes the work/life balance gets a little out of whack, but rarely is this not acknowledged and put right in the end. Consistency of comms from management/exec can be a little sporadic.
