Pros

This was a breakthrough opportunity to have a hand in improving student transportation in the country and I simply couldn’t let it pass me by. Access to the latest in technology allow me to put out my best work. I also have an amazing team who works with me. I enjoy working here because the people all have a great sense of humor so even if our projects are serious, it never feels heavy. For a start-up, the salary is considerably high and even has an equity portion to it. The benefits are also complete and include Dental / Medical / vision benefits as well as PTO.

Cons

The firm operates at a high speed. But this is characteristic of any startup.

Pros

One thing that stands out to me is the consistency. The schedule is predictable, expectations are reasonable, and the environment remains professional. The position has been a positive experience for me because I know what to expect from week to week.

Cons

I don’t have any concerns about the driving conditions.

Pros

The office was in an accessible location. My coworkers themselves were not difficult to work with.

Cons

• The team's project management system was nothing more than a shared Google Sheet. • The supposed operational infrastructure did not exist. No database, automation, or real task tracking system. • Repeated requests for basic tools were ignored and met with empty promises about future budgets. • The role became constantly inventing solutions while manually doing work proper systems should have handled. • Everything was built on workarounds and personal memory, making growth nearly impossible. • After six months of creating fixes for problems that should have been automated, there was simply nothing left to improve.
