Pros

The culture and the caliber of the team are second to none. The company is 100% virtual (everyone works from their home office), so you wouldn't necessarily expect a great culture to be at the top of the pros list, but it is. It comes from the top down - this firm truly values its people, from support staff up through Partner. The firm promotes a freedom and flexibility culture - it's real and strongly encouraged. Performance expectations are high, there is no sitting back and gliding here, but the leadership team really does stress the importance of work/life balance and taking care of yourself and your family. Great place to work.

Cons

It’s still very much an entrepreneurial environment, which isn’t for everyone. If you’re coming from a large corporation with well-established processes, lots of support resources, etc. this will feel very different. While the culture is great, working from home can be isolating. The firm does a great job at getting folks together – both virtually and in-person through summits three times a year – but if you’re a person who derives a lot of energy from daily in-person interactions with colleagues, this will be a big adjustment.

Pros

- I get to do the leadership and organization work I love, every day - We get to work at the highest levels of influence (CEOs, boards) with the most prominent clients in the world - Colleagues are genuinely kind and collaborative, there are no politics or backstabbing

Cons

- A good chunk of the work is solo, which creates a lot of flexibility but is a switch from traditional consulting - The remote culture isn't for everyone although the firm does a pretty amazing job of bringing people together. And when people are together the are remarkably present

Pros

There are many pros to working for ghSMART - 1. The team - people at ghSMART are amazing, supportive, and genuinely care for each other and want each other to win and be successful. Hands down, the most unique, intelligent, caring group of people I've ever worked with. 2. The culture allows you to be yourself and work within the freedom and flexibility the company prides itself on. I have never worked anywhere where it's encouraged to take a field trip with your child, make appointments during the day, enjoy dinner with your family every evening, and the list goes on - that's the ghSMART way! 3. Working fully remote has been such a fantastic bonus to working at ghSMART. I still feel connected, I get to see my colleagues in person from time to time, yet my work/life balance is the best it's been in my entire career. 4. The leadership team is available to connect with; they listen to their teams. The C-Suite team is newly formed and makes an incredible lineup of dynamic, approachable leaders.

Cons

There are none that I can see.
