Pros
I have never worked for a company that has such a "we care about you" mentality before. Here at Wayspring I feel like I matter as more than an employee. I feel valued as a person. Almost like family. I've been with the company over 2 years, and I truly plan to stay until I'm at retirement age. The workplace culture here is unmatched. I feel respected and heard by management. I feel truly appreciated by the entire team. Our HR department is top notch. They have gone above and beyond for me when I had a tough situation this summer, and it showed me how important I was to the organization as a team member and a person. I love the values of Wayspring. I love our mission. My role is remote, so it fits perfectly with what I need at this point in my life. Remote roles can be somewhat challenging to find a way to maintain a sense of belonging and closeness with other team mates, but I don't feel like is an issue at all here. I am extremely close to the majority of the people at the company in all departments across all markets. (Have I mentioned I love Wayspring?!!!)
Cons
If I had to come up with a con I would feel very hard pressed to do so. After thinking on this awhile I would say that constant change is the biggest/only con I can come up with. The business model has changed several times in my 2 years here; my role/title has changed 4 times, and I have been moved from manager to manager. Thankfully I came in knowing it was expected to happen as Wayspring was still considered a startup at that time. However, change fatigue is a very real thing, so just be aware upfront that change is a part of life at Wayspring. Thankfully management listens closely to our feedback and makes adjustments as needed.
