Cons

It's an agency, can be long hours and high turnover Flat structure, tough to get into management Became less of a meritocracy over time Over time, the value provided exceeds worth at company

Thank you for opening up about your previous experience at ROI. We very much agree with your advice to management, and invest heavily in training and mentoring managers as a result; we also recently implemented changes to our performance review process to reinforce our commitments to both accountability and meritocracy. We have added several new management roles and other higher-level roles in the past few months, and have also created programs focused on development within our existing roles (including our cross-service learning program). We believe these investments will enable continuous growth for our team members, but would welcome any ideas you have beyond what I’ve shared. Please reach out to me directly if interested! Best, Petra

Pros

ROI Revolution has stepped up in many ways during a challenging 2020, showing just how much it cares about its employees. The company swiftly closed its office in March when COVID-19 cases were on the rise, and ensured that all employees had IT equipment to work from home. It has since opened the office back up on a limited and voluntary basis, allowing for employees to make the right decision for themselves and their families. ROI has also rolled out generous benefits this year including increased PTO, increased WFH (pre-COVID), and company-paid short-term and long-term disability. In a year when many companies have implemented hiring freezes, cut benefits, or held back on promotions/merit increases, ROI has added these benefits and rolled out promotions/merit increases; that generosity is not lost on me. The company has also launched many mental health initiatives to ensure employees are taking care of themselves. I have always been pleased with the way ROI supports and cares for its employees, but this year has shown me that it is a company that lives by its core values in both the good and challenging times.

Cons

While the company has been extremely transparent about its reopening plans, I would welcome a more defined timeline for reopening as soon as that clarity is possible. I understand that COVID-19 cases are on the rise and that there isn't much predictability at the moment, but as soon as there is more predictability, I'd appreciate a specific update.

We are grateful for the resilience and dedication that our team members have shown this year; it's because of each ROIer's efforts that we were able to roll out the benefits described. We will share a more definitive office re-open plan and timeline as soon as possible, so stay tuned! Best, Petra

Pros

I loved my job. It made me happy almost every day. I got to work with smart, nice, empathetic team members. I ended up friends with many of them. We worked on hard, open-ended problems, and the impact of our work was always apparent. There was tons of collaboration and autonomy.

Cons

The company felt stagnant. It stopped growing so fast, and repostured a lot. Direction often seemed wrong, or aimless. A lot of effort was spent chasing what existing clients wanted, rather than figuring out what the entire market wanted or needed or would benefit from. A lot of great people responsible for much of the company's innovation left and no one took their places. Senior employees were brought in from outside the company to provide expertise, but it didn't seem as helpful as promoting from within. As the company got larger, organic cross-team work and ideas dried up, and recreation efforts fell short. Pay and other benefits were top-notch when I started, but fell (way) behind the market over time, despite efforts to keep up.

Thank you for sharing your experience at ROI Revolution. It’s great to hear that you came to work happy almost every day, as we strive to create real joy for our employees. I similarly love our collaborative environment and the challenging problems we solve day in and day out! We have intentionally pivoted our vision in recent years to align with the needs of the market, which has required that all of the systems that support that vision (e.g. sales, marketing, hiring, training, etc.) shift with it. Those shifts have included new approaches in sales and marketing to increase lead volume, updates to our compensation strategy to remain competitive, additional benefits (including company-paid short-term and long-term disability), and a better balance of internal hiring (that supports our culture of growth and development) and external hiring (to fill in knowledge gaps and increase our diversity). While all shifts certainly come with hurdles, I’m confident that our foundation is stronger than ever and that we’re set up to grow in a way that aligns with the broader market.
