Pros

- Great people. - Due to the open format of chat channels, it is typically simple to get assistance from more seasoned members of the company. - Company perks are nice - Diversity-friendly - CEO is great, company all-hands are entertaining to watch.

Cons

- Dealing with the workforce management system is tiresome. A lot of people have complained, management just doubles down. - Although the Support team was given opportunity to hone their talents in specific areas of our product, that didn't really happen. For many, this means that even if they are formally part of a smaller team, they are essentially still responsible for supporting the full product line. No chances for them to specialize past surface level knowledge.

Cons

The adage "sink or swim" speaks to the oftentimes challenging nature of learning on the job. While support mechanisms are available, it is my considered recommendation that individuals possess a formal qualification in their respective subject area to maximize their potential for thriving and succeeding within Workiva. This approach ensures that employees possess a broad range of knowledge and skills that align with the organization's objectives, and allows them to remain competitive in today's rapidly changing business environment.
