Pros
I really enjoy the fast pace at Aha! Everyone at the company is driven and works as a team to help the business not just succeed, but thrive. Transparency is excellent. Everyone knows what is going on every single week. The whole company is geared towards remote work. The onboarding, the onsite meetings, the little things that help us remote workers connect and truly feel like a team - it’s all there. I am also impressed with the continuous efforts to evolve and improve the business, all driven by a strategy-first mindset.
Cons
My customer-facing position is somewhat different than the product management I had done in the past. The switch from a longer-term strategic focus to daily meetings with different customers and focus on specific customer questions was an adjustment. I have found that, once you get up to speed, there are plenty of opportunities for other types of involvement and ownership within the team, which helps fill some of that need in me.
