Pros

Company of ambitious, hard working and incredibly compassionate and thoughtful people. Place where learning on the job is a requirement, and where you will have to be comfortable with being held accountable and moving fast. Strong growth prospects and two very smart and accessible founders who take feedback and listen. International business and an amazing portfolio of clients. Great opportunity to put your stamp on things and perfect your craft, whatever it may be -- but you have to have the confidence to go for it. Great people, meaningful and valuable experience. Business is serious about

Cons

Very heavy emphasis on growth that can trump thinking things through and working smarter not just harder. Not much of a work-life balance, which is to be expected in a growth company but still a recurring issue that can weaken the company's emphasis on creating a strong employee experience. Lots of competing priorities without clear sense of why some things are even priorities. Interesting benefits like Washio credits, paid mindfulness classes, but overall pretty basic. Not enough investment in professional development, leadership training or career planning.

Pros

The Frontline First culture is unlike any other organization I have worked for. I feel like the CEO and other CSuite leaders are transparent and approachable. Solid leaders who clearly understand the needs of employees.

Cons

Like all companies there are opportunities to improve, so nothing really worth mentioning.

Pros

Loved the LXL management chain. Supportive, fun, progress-minded. The company as a whole was okay, but the department I was with made it amazing. Lots of opportunities to develop skills. Absolutely incredible visibility for diversity, which is celebrated and respected without hesitation.

Cons

Very high demand. Can be very challenging to learn how to balance work and breathing room without falling behind. Many other departments were quick to blame the LXL department in front of highly regarded stakeholders for failures that were not of our own. Pay also changes depending on the client you work with. My client was the highest paying client at the time I was employed. The LXLs working for the branch-off of work from my client were paid much more than I due to the intensity of the work. My pay was considered the cap for where I was, and getting a raise that was not just a few pennies was not going to happen. Moving up is possible but limited. Due to this company being a BPO, if the client no longer needs our work, we are liable to be laid off. Employees are not contracted, but TaskUs is contracted to the client. Layoffs are a possibility, be it near or far. I was laid off after 4 years and saw many waves of many sizes laid off while there.
