Pros

I have been working at Sensibill for 3+ years and have seen the company grow and achieve some incredible milestones. During my time at Sensibill, I have done very well by taking advantage of the opportunities available in a fast-pace growing environment. The company has definitely changed over the years, but the team has always been extremely collaborative with a supportive and caring culture. There are great role models throughout the company to learn from.

Cons

There have definitely been some growing pains as new processes are implemented, new leaders brought on, etc. There have been mistakes and perhaps times where communication and transparency was not as good as it needed to be. But the company and management team continues to get better and learn from these mistakes and owns up to them when they happen. Over the past year, transparency has become much more a focus and has led to a more open culture. There have been a handful of people who have had bad experiences and have taken it out by leaving a scathing glass door review. This is more a reflection on the individuals and not the company. The culture at Sensibill is better than any other company I have worked with. Prior to my career with Sensibill, I was a a startup consultant and have seen some truly toxic environments. Sensibill is not one of them. Our latest engagement survey is a strong indication of this with a 70% favourable engagement score with 87% recommending Sensibill as a great place to work. This is the culture and work environment that I know and have been part of for the past 3 years.

I absolutely agree that we have had our share of growing pains over the years, and that we are striving to improve year over year. The more constructive feedback that we get from our employees, whether anonymously through this forum, in-person, or digitally through the employee platforms that we offer, the better we can get -- so thank you for leaving your feedback! You alluded to the engagement survey that we perform every six months. It’s a great tool to understand along which dimensions we’re strong and where we need to put more focus. I’m really happy to say that our engagement score remained consistent in the survey we just ran in June, and we had a 95% participation rate and 9 out of 10 people agreeing with the statement, “I am proud to work for Sensibill”. We also received lots of great comments that we’ll be using to put together an action plan to continue improving.

Pros

The people I worked with were some of the best people I've come across in the industry so far. Self directed, creative and humble. They were very supportive and I learned a lot from them.

Cons

I think the biggest con is the shaky product market fit, but if the team keeps at it something will stick. One important ingredient for the company to succeed would be to control data acquisition pipeline and not depend upon partners in the b2b spectrum as a sole mechanism.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience at Sensibill. And we completely agree; Sensibillians are incredibly talented people! With regards to market fit, Sensibill is passionate about and excited by growth in clients who are solving small business pain points, and the hand we’ve had in assisting them in that space.

Pros

I've worked at Sensibill for almost two years now and it has been such a refreshing experience. Everyone is working towards the same goal and that cohesiveness makes for a great working environment. I've worked at other places where people are playing politics games and trying to get ahead of each other but at Sensibill it's understood that the way we move forward is by doing what's best for the company and our clients. We also have some great talent and I feel like I can trust my peers skillsets but also I can trust that their intentions are for the best and they want to help each other and the company succeed. I also wanted to call out how impressed I am with the diversity at Sensibill. You will rarely see this company waving a flag about how diverse they are but they live it. We have people from all walks of life and representation from so many different cultures. But the most important thing is that Sensibill strives to empower each employee and encourage them to use their experience and bring their own ideas to the table.

Cons

Sensibill is a startup in a niche market. There's a lot of obstacles to overcome in the industry and limited resources and startup grinding can make things difficult. We have been expanding our product line which is great but after having had just one product for so long it takes time to build up the right momentum.
