Culture is Changing

Pros

Adwerx's culture from 2017 to the beginning of 2022 was one of the best I've ever been introduced to. In 2022, some leadership changes took place and massive layoffs occurred, affecting team morale and culture.

Cons

Salaries not always comparable, because of startup mentality.

Was fun while it lasted

Pros

At one point, Adwerx was a lot of fun. The people were wonderful and leadership was tolerable. The culture was strong and we were happy. Good benefits and PTO. Really cool office if you live near Raleigh/Durham. You can create a healthy work/life balance as long as you set your boundaries from the start. Room for growth if you stick it out.

Cons

You were considered a number the majority of the time, it seems like all they care about is revenue and will get it one way or another. Favoritism was incredibly prevalent and below-average pay for a lot of positions. Layoffs after a new CEO joined and now it seems there is a lot of restructuring that would create a lot of hesitation if someone new were to join the team.

Pros

Adwerx has a fantastic corporate culture, amazing benefits, and a wonderful team of empathetic and driven individuals. I believe there are other employees having a 5 star experience in departments other than sales.

Cons

Adwerx has a fantastic and talented staff base of sales representatives and sales managers, but they are not set for success in any way. As such, they are currently churning through reps at an alarming pace, both through resignations and dismissals. Meetings have devolved from sharpening the saw to a maddening daily review of your pipeline due to an incredibly fragmented data reporting system. Reps are expected to update Salesforce, 1:1 docs, and also review with their manager/team each day. It is an incredible waste of time that could be better spent sourcing and closing business. Communication and product training on the sales team needs some serious work. It feels as though every week there is a change to what we can and cannot sell and at what level. I have lost a few deals over changing policies that were improperly communicated. Rules of engagement between different sales departments (inside sales/SMB/Enterprise) are not well defined and lead to animosity between the teams instead of collaboration via warm handoffs. On some teams there are a clear set of rules over what discounts and programs we are authorized to employ and on others there seem to be no rules until you break one. Adwerx could be a five-star company if they truly prioritized taking care of their sales team in the day-to-day operations.

Pros

I really enjoy working at Adwerx. The engineering team is the best I've ever worked with and everyone is easy to get along with. I like how the team is managed. There's a wide range of experience on the team and everyone supports everyone else.

Cons

I wish there was a bit more vacation time.

Leadership is disorganized. The male dominated executive team lacks vision and the ability to successfully execute. Revenue continues to decline and there is a lack of ability to manage operations in a way that benefits the business.

A great engineering department

Recommend

Pros

Great work/life balance, low-stress, minimal meetings, and excellent project management. Epics and stories are always well thought out with clear criteria. You'll have the opportunity to take ownership of projects and your voice can help shape the product. RFCs allow you to go into detail about an idea and get feedback from your teammates. Engineering management always has an open door and is always happy to hear feedback. A departmental meeting every 2 weeks covers important topics and give you a chance to present to the department at large (if you ever desire to). Excellent processes/workflow, continuous delivery pipeline, and development tooling. You can be up and running on day 1. This is nothing short of an amazing team to work with.

Cons

Exposure to the rest of the company can be a bit limited (although there are monthly all-hands meetings). This may be a positive for you though, depending on your preferred work style. And on the flip side, you may be surprised how many people have heard about you if you get opportunities to branch out--leadership gives credit where due when discussing their teams' achievements.
