      Top-heavy management and insular culture

      Pros

      OK if you live on the island; some groups are doing interesting things. Aggressive growth means lots of opportunitiy. Most managers are flexibile with schedules.

      Cons

      All projects come from managment downward and never originiate with managers (at least this was the case in my group). Preferential hiring toward neighbors, siblings, children and friends who live in the island. High turnover. Culture that encourages towing the corporate party line rather than pushing and questioning why your group is doing what it's doing (to the detriment of the company). If you commute from Seattle, you qill quickly get sick of the insular Bainbridge Island culture and lack of diversity.

      Great people, great opportunity

      Pros

      Company has a vision and a plan to execute. The time is NOW to join Avalara. This will be a story you get to tell your grandkids about. Lots of growth opportunity for employees, but be ready to roll-up your sleeves and get busy. No room for analysis/paralysis.

      Cons

      None so far. Everyone has been super supportive of me and the team I manage. Everyone -- Product, Engineering, Sales, Marketing are all working toward the same goals and share the same values.
