Pros
- You get to truly help people. SafelyYou, their tech, and their people are completely reshaping the standard of care for people with dementia. Using AI tech to detect falls quickly is only part of the equation. Another important part is working with the communities that care for people with dementia to detect and prevent falls before they happen. - The people genuinely care. Every person I have met, talked to, and worked with cares...from the CEO to the members on my team, and everyone in between. Management shows empathy and solidarity, even in times where tough decisions have to be made. - Meaningful work. Many companies put out all sorts of propaganda, both publicly and to their employees, about how they are improving people's lives. SafelyYou is different, in that, it does not need to do this, it is simply true. - Innovative. I get to work with awesome tech every day. Decisions on specific technologies are decided by the experts and engineers that specialize in those technologies. Conversely, it is also nice that tech decisions are not made by people who do not understand the tech. - Amazing culture. All of the above also come into play here, but I feel it important to point out that every person I have worked with shows grit, determination, and integrity in all that they do. We hold each other accountable, we help each other, and we care about one another. - Other pros include: Work from home; quarterly stipends for office equipment, continued learning, and healthy living; top-shelf equipment; and (likely) a few things I'm not remembering.
Cons
I have never worked for a company that I had nothing to put in the "Cons" box...until now.
