Pros
RoadRunner is a growing company, although the growth in some areas has started to level out, with opportunities for advancement. With that you have the option to be exposed to multiple departments over the course of your employment if you’re able to secure a promotion or transfer within departments. If you’re applying to the BDR role it’s an inside sales job, that means you’re cold calling. The management team in inside sales is young and is learning their management styles, I’d suspect most are first time managers, and with that there have been growing pains in teams as they learn their styles. In other departments the turnover is normal for any company. Most have been there for 1.5 years plus, and for a company that is now almost 5 years old but has only truly seen large growth in the last 2.5 that’s a great length I would say. For sales there’s a higher turnover, but personally I would expect to see that. If you’re looking for a place to land it’s a good option as they continue to build out their benefits package. With that said the PTO is 15 days plus two floating holidays for sick time and vacation time, use it wisely and you’ll be just fine, although having a little more would be nice as well (but isn’t it always nice to have more time off?). The health insurance is fairly good and is super reasonable. If you’re single it’ll cost less than $5 a month for health, dental and vision. Overall the company was a great place to work, I did see myself there for a long period and had every intention to stay but my personal life changed my plan along the way and I left because I relocated.
Cons
Overall the cons are fairly basic: Location falls into both because it’s downtown Pittsburgh so parking is outrageous but the bus is a great option. There can be little groups of close knit folks that can make some feel outside the group but that happens everywhere. I would also suggest to try to make things more “professional”. Enforce the dress code across the board and work on enforcing policies equally all of the time, while it was getting way better there was still room for improvement.
