Pros

Some nice people but very high turnover

Cons

Upper management biased Unprofessional work environment, decisions made based on emotions rather than facts Management provides different direction every other day, they have no idea what they are doing Good work is not appreciated, nor rewarded, but car salesman approach is Too much micromanaging and talking behind closed doors

Pros

Great culture of transparency and teamwork. Good camaraderie. Fexible hours. Outstanding CEO: business-wise and personal-wise: took company to IPO before, positive energy, very accessible with great ethics and humane values. Real career growth opportunities given the growth of the company.

Cons

It's hard to find downsides of working at FirstRain. I guess FirstRain wouldn't be a fit for you if you are not ready to work hard to get results and don't have a positive attitude, people doing sloppy work or being negative are not lasting long at FirstRain.
