Learning potential is irreplacable

Pros

At my time at WeddingWire, I joined at the right time to be given a unique opportunity to explore my interests and skills that is pretty rare at most companies. My department has confidence in my capabilities and what I do for my team which motivates me, and gives me irreplaceable experience. I have learned more in a few years at WeddingWire than I think I would have learned in 10-15 years at a different company. It is such a relaxed and happy environment, that I really enjoy coming to work every day, and can't believe I call it "work". I love going to work every day and having the CEO be one of the friendliest faces you'll see.

Cons

-Middle management is not assessed. I found it strange that I was not asked for upward feedback during my evaluations, since I think a lot of our problems derive from them. -No 401K match

Need to offer more growth options for employees

Pros

WeddingWire has been successful in hiring some really great, talented people. With that, they've created an environment where you are able to work with some of your best friends - making it more difficult to leave the company. They do offer "unlimited PTO" but that means different things depending on which department you work in. They also offer catered breakfast and occasionally lunch.

Cons

As the company has grown they have made the mistake of putting the tenured employees into middle management roles. These employees are not fit to be managers, and aren't interested in being a manager to help their team become more successful - but simply for the power of the position. There are a few great managers, however the overwhelming majority have no idea how to manage a team or help their team to grow within the company. You'll also be lucky if you can find a clear path for growth. Unfortunately, these "management" positions are your only option for growth and if you aren't interested in being a manager, then you don't have any other options. They would rather you find a new job then work with you within the company which shows they don't value their current employees.
