Pros
Access is a great company to work for. Fair pay and good benefits. The CEO, President and COO really care about the employees and the Company. The Company also is very focused on growth, and growth provides opportunity. The Company is very acquisitive, acquiring between 10 and 20 companies a year. While that leads to the need for a lot of hard work, it also provides an opportunity for A players within the organization to have a lot of security, a lot of work to do/responsibility, and a lot of upward mobility. In most areas withing the organization, the people are great and the culture is a fast paced and exciting. The industry is in a pivot, seeing clients focus more and more on privacy and compliance, so it is a unique opportunity to use an entrepreneurial spirit and add value to the organization. I'd recommend anyone who enjoys a fast paced and challenging environment to work for Access!
Cons
Access moves really fast, which can be tiring if you aren't ready for it. There are small pockets in the organization where the culture is too focused on the financial performance with little qualitative review and that can make it hard to shine as an employee if financial performance is out of your control in a specific position. If you do not work at the corporate office in MA, you can occasionally feel like the leaders there want to control everything and make most decisions and don't trust the people working in market, which can feel challenging.
