Pros
I have been with the company for a short period, and my first impression has been great from the interviewing process, onboarding, diversity, transparency + communication, benefits, etc. It is still early on in my employment, but I love coming into work at Zapproved. I had a positive team experience at my previous job as well, but the contrast in job satisfaction simply from being surrounded by a very diverse group of people in terms of gender, ethnicity, work experience and educational backgrounds is striking. Quite frankly, I could never go back to a more homogeneous environment. I love that I was able to jump in and start contributing right away. My manager and teammates are very supportive for the short AND long term in terms of goal-setting and planning. Before coming in, I did check out Glassdoor and was a bit concerned about some of the negative reviews. However, most of those worries have been alleviated since I started working at Zapproved. It is very apparent that there has been a lot of change in the last year at the company, and I'm quite impressed with the transparency I've witnessed as a newcomer. Every company will run into obstacles. I want to work at the company that will adjust their trajectory to overcome obstacles rather than stay rigid. Some notable changes seem to be a strongly agile work approach, adjustments to milestones, and a re-org -- all for the better. Overall, I sense that a lot of people are quite happy working here. I look forward to updating this review after I have been here longer.
Cons
Parking waitlist. However, we will be moving locations next year, and there are benefits to help with this.
