Pros

Free lunch and paid medical.

Cons

A lot of the 4 and 5-star reviews on here are from current employees. Why? Because HR pushes it down your throat to come on here and write a positive review to help attract people to the company. One of the recruiters even asked me if I wrote a review and tried to "guess" which one was mine. Needless to say I'm only writing now that I've left the company. Management here is terrible. The CEO who founded the company needs to take a step back and let people do their jobs. A lot of people are extremely talented and the company had potential, but he and the other leadership team present ideas that are very dated and borderline spammy. It's easy to see why there's a lot of turnover with recent employees. If you take a job here, be prepared to talk a lot about your feelings. There are several monthly meetings with your team where you are forced to "open up", only for this to be used against you by your manager and the leadership team. It is a very weird, Silicon Valley type of thinking that is what's keeping AWeber behind. Biggest waste of time. There's also a lot that goes on behind the scenes that HR and the "Chief People Officer" turn a blind eye to. It really is a game here, sadly, and people that drink the Kool Aid can get away with a lot of sexist comments and harassment. There is also no opportunity for advancement or growth here, so you need to be ok with your career being flatlined. Promotions are mostly title, not compensation.

Overall, AWeber is an awesome place to work. Everyone you talk to is open to giving and receiving feedback, and we all push each other to be better every single day and deliver at the highest levels for our current and potential customers. An incredibly talented team with ambition and passion for what they do. Culture is amazing. We have a ton of fun together.

Cons

Limited team management opportunities.
