Thank you for taking the time to share your positive review! We're happy to hear that you appreciate the sense of autonomy and trust we have in all of our employees. We wouldn't be as successful as we are today without our fantastic people, and we're dedicated to continuing to build upon our supportive culture. Since our business has grown very quickly over the past few years, admittedly, our technology hasn't been able to keep up at times. However, we have recently hired our VP of Technology and we are very excited about the new strategic vision that she brings to the team.

Pros

Management truly cares about what employees have to say. We are constantly being surveyed, asked for feedback, encouraged to ask questions and give suggestions related to the Company. We have quarterly business updates where the CEO shares with us strategy, and shows us all how the company is doing. The culture is unbelievable - we have an entire People & Culture Team that focuses on employees’ well-being, plans tons of social events and helps with coaching managers on how to deal with situations. Everyone is very smart and very passionate about what they do. It’s really a joy to go to work here. I feel like I’ve found a hidden gem in coming to work here!

Cons

There are none! We are now moving to a new office so space constraints we had will be gone!

Thank you for sharing your kind words! We would not be as successful as we have been without the leadership team's commitment to investing in and listening to our employees, so we're so happy to hear that you appreciate the transparent and collaborative culture, along with the learning & development opportunities, the quarterly business updates, and all of the fun events we host throughout the year. And we can't wait to move into our new space this summer either!

Pros

I have been with Forward Financing since 2017 & I have to say that I have never experienced such a fantastic culture compared to all of the other companies. The leadership team is transparent on the vision of the company, and they are very involved in ensuring the success and the growth of all of their employees.

Cons

No cons other than how fast we have outgrown our current space due to how quickly the company has grown.

Thank you for your review. Our team puts a strong focus on planning fun monthly team building activities, biweekly company huddles, and all of the other exciting events we host throughout the year, so we're thrilled to hear that you love the fantastic culture! And we understand your concern about outgrowing our office space. We've grown very quickly over the past couple of years, and can't wait to move into our new office space in downtown Boston this summer!
