Pros

Great collaborative culture, sense of urgency around technology, and deliver on what they say

Cons

As the company gets bigger, it's hard to keep the same standards for hiring, but Banyan has done a great job given their size.

Pros

Note - I am the CEO of a Banyan portfolio company, not of the Banyan Group. Banyan offers excellent support and training for its teams. The culture is easily the best and healthiest I have been in, and I look forward to engaging with teams from other companies and from HQ.

Cons

As the group has been growing so quickly, it has suffered from some of the usual problems: functional managers who cannot keep up or slow responses to important requests.

Pros

Real ownership from day one — you drive decisions, not just execute someone else's strategy. Unmatched learning curve — exposure to M&A, GTM, finance, and operations across a live portfolio, not theory. Meritocratic and modern — step-up opportunities come from performance, not tenure or hierarchy. Work directly with senior operators and founders — high-caliber peer group accelerates your own growth. Decentralized model means your impact is visible and attributable, not diluted across a large org.

Cons

Fast-paced and self-directed — you need to be comfortable building your own structure, not waiting for one. Resources and support exist but are opt-in, so initiative is rewarded more than compliance. High expectations from day one — steep ramp-up, less hand-holding than a traditional corporate track. Portfolio companies vary in maturity, so exposure and challenges differ depending on where you land. Not a fit for people who want a fixed playbook — ambiguity is part of the job.
