Pros

I have learned so much since I started working at AHEAD. We truly are what it means to be a team. Every department plays a role in the company's success, and there is never a lack of recognition for your contributions. We simply enjoy helping each other and learning from one another. The executives make you feel important no matter what your role is. The benefits are endless, and I can honestly say that we have a ton of fun. We work hard, but we always set aside time to share stories and laughs.

Cons

We work at a very fast-pace. You must learn quickly and be independent. This prepares you for any challenge that you may face. Personally, I am grateful for all the knowledge and experience that I have gain in such a short time.

Pros

The Engineering staff, both pre sales and post sales are some of the best in the industry.

Cons

Ahead is an overly sales driven organization. This has the propensity to create (and has created) conflict where conflict need not be.

Pros

They had free food and drinks including alcohol in their HQ Kitchen. Did not look good for prospective customers but employees enjoyed. it.

Cons

Terrible management (sales management specifically). They were all about the bottom line and reporting growth to shareholders. Entire motivation was acquiring new companies to double their revenue. Did not care about employees or customers really, just greedy money grabbing leadership. High turnover.
