Pros

Lateral management structure Plenty of opportunities to learn new things Interesting projects Self-organizing teams Customers are persistently engaged 40-hour weeks (no, really) Employees have agency and the space they need to enact good ideas. Extremely Intelligent, engaged co-workers who love what they do. Revolving door company Insane benefits Free soda/coffee Snacks aren't free but profits from those go to buying video/board games for the company stash. ... oh, and you get a certain amount of Professional Development hours each year, in which the company will pay you to go tinker with robots or whatever you so desire.

Cons

Lateral management occasionally leads to problems - larger cross-team projects can lack cohesion if you don't keep an eye on it, though mostly they do. Transitions from one client project to another can involve some down-time, and if you work for Asynchrony, being "out of work to do" is probably not something you enjoy.

Thanks for the great feedback, and so glad to hear you're still engaged! We've definitely had some growth pains in the last few years, but I feel very optimistic that many of the issues of the past are either behind us or are just one creative solution away. We're also in total agreement about the need to harness the power of our people into IP that we can use to help our customers, and we're working as fast as we can on how to make that happen. Hope to have you around for many years to come so you can take this journey with us!

Pros

My manager was very supportive she would give great feedback and try to help me grow . The people were awesome. My coworkers were great and supportive.

Cons

For all the projects we had regional managers there was one that had it out for me. This person was relentless and I went to my manager. The problem I had with this person was they never stop coming after me and my manager tried to stop this person in their tracks, but they tried a way to come after me. My manager’s manager was kind of not a good manager because he was all about the numbers and he didn’t care about the person. He never once had a one-to-one conversation with me I noticed that he played favorites with people and it’s just not good to do that. I believe that as a senior manager, you have to get to know your team instead of hearing what other people say. There was a senior project manager out there who essentially threw me under the bus. When people would resign, all of the projects that were left behind by the previous person they would dump it on one person. It is a lot of work to dump on a person. Some managers would help you grow and there are others that will do the work behind your back on a project. There was one who would start adjusting my project numbers and get mad at me. Mind you this was my first year and this manager would throw me under the bus. “Great Workplace?” Please
