Pros

-Great opportunity to put on resume, recruiters in Boston love AppNeta reps -Young sales team is a great crowd, build great relationships during the early mornings, late nights, and saturday sourcing sessions. -True work hard play hard environment (just dont get a lot of time to play) -Sales Spiffs are top of the line (trips, events) but not worth the abuse -Technology is great and the team designing/building/supporting it is A+

Cons

-Very junior sales team with not a lot of leadership to go around -Lie in interviews to bring on more reps (Positive Glassdoor reviews prior to April 2013 are written internally by HR for recruiting purposes just an FYI) -No work life balance (expect to be at work before 7:30pm, after 6:30pm, and to be on your managers good side come in on a Saturday or two to source lists for data import on Mondays) -Since leaving have heard feedback from old prospects/lost opportunities that they were turned off by the lack of professionalism on the AppNeta side of the phone.

Pros

I saw a recent review and it prompted me to do the same. I joined in past year and have found AppNeta to be far better than I expected after looking back at earlier GlassDoor reviews. Changes across the company feel material compared to stories I'm told from the early days (haven't seen any of that behavior since I joined). I do see many people being recognized for their efforts and it seems like there are nearly as many promotions as there are new hires joining the company (which is a lot!). There are many young/new managers here, but that feels well balanced with other managers with more experience and I like that tenure isn't a fixed bar for promotion. Performance and consistency seems to carry the day here. I also appreciate being able to approach both peers and management of all levels with ideas and being taken seriously. Love the proximity to South Station. I never have to drive to office or worry about parking. The Boston office manager is the best I've ever seen and is genuinely concerned about providing a good work environment. Great snacks and food too!

Cons

Office environment is open floor plan and can sometimes be chaotic and a bit loud. I can find quiet places to work when I need to, but I wish the office layout where I sit would let me stay at my desk regardless of other team's noise. Definitely not an environment for everyone. But for me, the higher energy level is worth the minor aggravation of the periodic noise. We're growing fast and the office space is filling up, so a bit concerned if we have to move to different part of Boston as I really like the innovation district where we are now.

Thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback - much appreciated. Your input on the open floor plan and how we can improve it echo other internal discussions and have been incorporate into changes we've already made. It'll never be a "quiet" office (by design), but we can do better to accommodate varying working styles. Look for more to come and please keep the ideas flowing!

Pros

The management team at AppNeta really cares about the employees and are always looking for different ways to improve employee happiness. It is a fun environment to work in especially since we are growing at such a quick rate. AppNeta generally does at least one company wide fun event quarterly, along with bi-weekly lunches and weekly happy hours. AppNeta also gives back to the community with quarterly volunteer activites along with seasonal food and clothing drives.

Cons

I can't think of any cons to working at AppNeta. The enviroment is lively and energetic which may not be for everyone.

Thanks for your comments - very much appreciated. Fun and work often don't go hand in hand, but the entire team at AppNeta really does focus on this and I agree, it is a fun place to work!
