Great opportunity, middle management is weak - BDA MyBuys Employee Review

-the Ann Arbor office is full of young, talented individuals who are passionate about their work -management is creative and new products are implemented frequently -there is a large amount of mobility between departments and employees can experience different roles -HR is extremely understanding, approachable, and dedicated to improving the workplace -company hierarchy is fairly flat; lower level employees can make an impact on the company as a whole -the rapid growth of the industry makes the work interesting, exciting and frequently educational -the training provided to new hires at the BDA role is immensely helpful to those who are new to sales -company culture that extends to events outside the office leads to a strong community of co-workers

-the day-to-day duties in the BDA role are often tedious, tiring and can be frustrating -performance based compensation is sometimes difficult to achieve without exceptional dedication and work ethic

-Significant opportunities to advance rapidly (less than 2 years with MyBuys, received 3 promotions) -High-exposure to upper-management/executive-team -Fast-growing company, market-leader -Opportunity to manage important initiatives early in your career -Rotational program for new-hires to develop skills in a wide-range of jobs quickly -Management invests heavily in their employees -Fun culture -Opportunities to experience light-business travel -Caring and accommodating environment -Challenging responsibilities -Very little micro-managing, management trusts their employees and give them lots of "rope" -Recognize talent and retains talent well -1:1 mentors to help employees grow

-Entry-level pay feels relatively low compared to initial value-add but is still a fair for someone just entering the industry w/o directly relevant experience (as you advance, this changes) -Due to rapid growth, some growing-pains exist internally (support engineering keeping up with exponential increases in sales, growth caused some over-crowding in A2 office, etc...) -Downtown Ann Arbor location can present some challenges/costs (parking, traffic, etc...), though we are in the process of finding a new office
