Hello, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your perspective. I'm truly sorry to hear of your poor rating of us as an employer. I'm always available, or another member of my team if you'd like, to discuss this further. We all genuinely care, and want nothing but the best for you. - Mel Dale, Head of People Operations

Pros

Benefits and pay are competitive (unlimited PTO, free health plan) Smart people on your team for help and support Company meet-ups and excursions are fun Work with a-list software clients Promote from within a lot Very independent work

Cons

Burnout has happened but it comes in waves Workload needs to be communicated to your manager Sometimes isolating since everyone's remote and pretty busy It takes a second to find your flow, and figure out the position's work dynamic (after 6 months I got there and it's been busy but manageable)

Pros

- Have felt extremely supported at the company since day 1 - Team members are smart, motivated and very welcoming - Company is growing into new markets, and it has been extremely exciting to be along for the ride - Excited to see where Directive goes in the next couple of years - While the team works hard, have never felt required to work past typical working hours & am always able to take time off for vacations, doctor appointments etc. - When your working day is over, it’s not expected you answer slack messages etc - They’ve recently created an employee experience department to focus on developing employees skill sets, have structured reviews & being able to voice questions etc

Cons

- Fast paced company which isn’t for everyone - You have to know how to manage your calendar & make time for yourself - Since Directive is growing there are some areas they are still trying to figure out (as any growing company does). When there is an area of opportunity, it is heard and they make shifts to support
