Pros
On the ground floor there are really good people who are supportive of one another and it does feel like family
There is opportunity to grow if you are ambitious and willing put yourself out there - employees often switch groups, relocate or get to work on projects in other parts of the globe
Very flexible - many employees are fully remote
Cons
Uneven compensation structure between groups and within groups
Inconsistent procedures/ collaboration between global regions
Business growing too big too fast; poor acquisition onboarding
Senior personnel from legacy companies not willing to adapt and change (I.e. sell to new clients/sectors, adopt new processes/procedures that are more scalable, etc)
At times dysfunctional - employees and leadership on different waves lengths, poor communication of vision, competing priorities or goals
Too much time spent creating add-on software to automate Finance, HR, Project Management rather than improving preexisting technology
