Pros

The company culture is very respectful and friendly. All the staff have been very welcoming and from day one they have made me feel welcome and an important part of the company.

Cons

This isn't a company policy, but rather based on my own experience. During my interview process, I feel some topics that I consider important were omitted. Additionally, during my first few days at the company, my direct manager resigned, so my training and preparation were somewhat limited.

We really appreciate you sharing your open and honest feedback. We're so happy to hear that the team has made you feel welcomed and valued from day one - that sense of belonging is a top priority for us! We'd also love to learn more about the important topics you felt were omitted during your interview process. If you are comfortable, please share those details with the People & Culture team or your manager so that we can improve in this area going forward. We want to make sure you have everything you need to be successful here at Forward, so please don't hesitate to reach out if we can help!

Pros

The company has been going through a super exciting time, experiencing a bunch of growth while still maintaining an awesome culture and the people making Forward a truly special place. The 2x a year get togethers in Boston are something everyone looks forward to. The fact the company is fully dedicated to being remote has led us to bring on high caliber talent. FF rewards it's people, we rolled out a new set of incentives in 2025, including a Presidents Club trip. We set countless records in 2025 and excited to see what 2026 brings!

Cons

Thank you for such a positive and energetic review! It's awesome that you feel our culture is keeping pace with our growth and that the remote flexibility is helping us bring in such great talent. We are also thrilled to hear that new incentives, like the President’s Club, are resonating with the team - continuing to celebrate and reward our team members is such an important part of our culture. We're so glad you're excited about breaking those records in 2025 because this was a huge collective achievement - and we also can’t wait to see what we accomplish together in 2026! It is also wonderful to know that you couldn't think of any downsides right now. If that changes and you think of any opportunities for improvement, we are always eager to hear it. Thanks for being part of the Forward journey!

Pros

Remote Work: The ability to work remotely is a huge plus and provides a great work-life balance. Company Culture: You can really feel the values here. The employees are high-caliber, professional, and genuinely great people to work with. Management Support: As a Manager, I feel heard. Leadership is approachable and values input from their team. Benefits: The benefits package is competitive, specifically the generous PTO policy.

Cons

Internal Communication: Change management could be smoother. Sometimes changes that directly impact our daily workflows aren't communicated early enough, which can cause unnecessary friction.
