Pros
Testlio is a genuinely kind company that strives for greatness. I believe we have a great and welcoming culture because we are a female-founded tech company, which is unfortunately a rarity in the tech industry. The CEO possesses the rare combination of making the decisions required to help Testlio be great and not thrash due to a lack of decision making, while also being a genuinely kind human who lives the values. Steve continually impresses me with his leadership and humility. Our customers also love our service, so it is easy to believe in the company and simply focus on finding the growth opportunities that are a good fit. Kristel's innovation and the cultural path she set Testlio on almost a decade ago are unique. Testlio is a case of by being true to yourself and your culture, a company can grow year over year via the 'flywheel effect'. By aspiring to be what makes us great, Testlio continues to grow. It's a nice place to be with a good work-live balance.
Cons
Sometimes the distributed by design culture can lead to a feeling that there is a consensus culture. I've found that once you've earned the company's and leaders' trust after a couple quarters, they make you feel empowered to do what is right without asking for permission first.
