A Great Place to Grow
Pros
Telmate has allowed me to pursue my career in a way most other companies wouldn't. They recognize intelligence and talent and give their employees the space to grow in their field. I have been extremely fortunate to have several excellent mentors and bosses in my several years at the company. I've also been lucky to work with many coworkers who truly care about our customers and about building better products for an often overlooked and underserved population. Things other reviewers mentioned about the leadership may have had some validity at one time, but the tides are shifting. Process is being implemented, improvements are being made. The time when a company shift from start-up to mid-size is always a bit rocky, but changes made in the last year or so give me confidence that Telmate is moving in a great direction.
Cons
No place is perfect, not everyone fits in everywhere and not every path to success is smooth. I know these sound like clichés but they are true. If you left here disgruntled, chances are you don't have the sunniest outlook on this company. But prospective candidates should take that with a grain of salt. There are always bad hires, there is always political drama, no matter how well-run a company is.
