Pros
Leadership, culture, work life balance encouragement, and the people on this team = HPT! Leadership - Our Director is someone I admire. He's a good person and the way he leads/treats us is without a doubt the secret sauce to our happiness and success. He lives the culture and it shows in the way he behaves. Culture - I like going to work. I get excited when walking in the door. When I leave, it is not unusual for me to turn around, take a breath, and thank God for WWT and know that I am privileged to work here. Every day isn't sunshine and rainbows. But even on the worst of days, this culture will pull you through if you have the right leadership in place who you know not only care about you as a worker, but as a person as well. Work Life Balance: When you enjoy what you do, it can be very easy to become addicted to your job. This is a double-edged sword. Yes, we work off hours occasionally, but not because we are told to. But because we know it’s needed as our global business is building steam and our friends across the pond need some help. Our Leadership does not ever force us to do this. We do this to support teams who need us and we recognize that. Proud to help! This is always recognized, mentioned, and appreciated by our leadership. Teammates: I work with very knowledgeable people from a Project Management perspective, data, process, and financials. Always willing to enlighten me or educate me and I often do the same for them. These are the type of people you can trust and that you would have over to your families Thanksgiving meal. We succeed together, and we fail together (occasionally). But we learn as a team and we have a great harmony with one another. Not afraid to challenge one another when we need to. We trust each others intent and boy does that speed things up! Our transition into Finance has been relatively seamless from a culture perspective other than noticing how cool Finance is and the great things they are doing from a culture perspective to make my experience working for this company even better! Yes, our insurance is world class. Our 401K is world class.
Cons
Much manual work in many processes that increase the risk of errors and issues. We have to be on our toes! Lack of systematic communication within hand offs for important information due to tools not capturing or performing as needed. The business is changing quickly. We have to be agile with our tools and get them updated quickly to meet needs.
