Thanks so much for the great review! It’s wonderful to hear that our remote work flexibility and company culture have been such highlights of your experience at Forward. We also appreciate your honesty about the pace of the work. Things certainly move quickly around here, which can be challenging at times! If that fast pace ever starts to feel a bit too heavy, please remember to lean on your team or chat with your manager so they can help you balance the workload. Thank you for being such a great part of the team!

We really appreciate your honest review! It means a lot to hear that our welcoming culture feels genuine to you - we try hard to keep things authentic and skip the corporate fluff. We're also glad that you are feeling valued when it comes to the compensation, benefits, and incredible people you get to work with. As for the cons you mentioned, we never want anyone on the team to feel like they have to work unsustainable hours or can't disconnect. We are moving fast and tackling a lot right now, but taking breaks and stepping away from the screen during the day is so important for your well-being. We don't want our fast pace to lead to burnout. Please don't hesitate to chat with your manager about your current bandwidth so they can help you prioritize and find a more sustainable daily balance. Thank you for your encouragement to the leadership team, and for all the hard work you put in!

Pros

People first, amazing culture, great management and systems, and a vision I can get behind.

Cons

remote first, so if that's not your thing, then there are only a few cities where an office is available.

Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts! We love to hear that our focus on our people is translating into great management and a solid work/life balance for you. And you're right - we're very intentional about how we grow the team! Taking that extra time during the interview process to find candidates who truly add to our culture and bring the right skills makes all the difference. You make a good point about our remote-first work environment, too. While we love the day-to-day flexibility, we know how important in-person connection is. That’s exactly why we bring the whole company together twice a year for our Forward Palooza events, in addition to individual team offsites throughout the year! Thank you for believing in our mission and for being such a great part of the team!
