Pros
Work you can be proud of- Helping local governments increase productivity and work more effectively and efficiently feels GOOD. Not only is it great to be in a business that helps improves the lives of others, but it's fun! The work is rewarding and far from boring. I am always excited to engage and collaborate with my coworkers.
People you enjoy being around- Everyone works together no matter their age, job title, department, years of experience, etc. The employees at Cartegraph are genuinely happy, nice, friendly people. I never walk by someone without receiving a smile or a "Hi, how are you?".
Transparency- Whether it’s a product update, new hire joining the team, or an employee’s birthday, everyone at CG knows about it- and that’s a good thing! Having an open and effective communication channel allows everyone within the organization to feel included and valued.
Continuous feedback- Receiving advice and recognition from fellow team members and managers/leaders rocks. Not only does getting acknowledged feel good and instill confidence, but it shows that people TRULY care about your efforts.
Foosball, snacks, and an unlimited supply of coffee.
Cons
Lack of diversity within leadership roles- Most of the executive team is white, middle-aged men. This makes it difficult for women, people of color, and other minorities to feel valued. When a leadership team lacks diversity, others don’t feel comfortable or confident enough to speak up and voice their opinions or concerns.
