Pros

Small company - can learn the ins and outs of how a business works Compensation - generous pay for folks Great product

Cons

Unprofessional - bosses do not promote or evaluate employees based on talent or performance. Certain bosses spend significant amount of time with employees outside of work = extremely unprofessional Lack of structure - certain groups get to work from home while others do not, some are expected to put in long hours, etc

Thank you for your review. Our CEO, Myles, asked me to pass along this note: Thank you for your "Pros" section compliments. With respect to your "Cons", as a relatively small company with 200 employees and an aversion to hierarchy, we reward performance with "generous pay", as you have acknowledged, including generous year-end performance bonuses. With respect to the time our employees choose to spend together outside of work, that's none of my business. Presumably they simply enjoy each others' company enough to want to socialize a bit. You are correct, there is a lack of top-down decisions about structure at GSG -- because we believe firmly in the principle of subsidiarity; that the best management decisions, whether related to strategy, operations, product or customer service, will be made by our small teams of mature professionals. This structure has served us well for the past 20 years. So as President, I am inclined to stay out of the way.

Pros

My coworkers were great to work with

Cons

- Management here is extremely poor, even compared to companies where I had lower workplace satisfaction - Too much pivoting due to poor resource planning + management due to a poorly crafted longitudinal vision - Disingenuous execution of cultural outlook - Feedback is inconsistent and not supported by clear metrics/expectations

Response from our President: Thanks for complimenting your co-workers. It is a welcome tribute to our culture. For the past 20 years, Grant Street has sustained an organic, compound annual growth rate exceeding 20%. Surely such an extraordinary track record requires competent management. And, to your point, it requires lots of pivoting to sustain it, which has been and will continue to be possible only by developing what you describe as our newer, “extraordinary frontline staff”.
