Some unethical practices after the merger

Pros

I loved this company before it was merged with GovDelivery. I was treated well, it was a compassionate place to work that saw people as human beings and not as drones. The people who work in the Denver office are fantastic humans. That office is a lot of fun. Oh and great healthcare was a good perk.

Cons

After the merger with GovDelivery, a lot of interesting leadership decisions were made, and some people clashed and egos got in the way. The culture changed a great deal into one that was very impersonal and generally ...machine-like? I went from feeling like a valued member of a work family to a cog in a machine very quickly. It's also problematic that 2 companies merged and GovDelivery's HR team took over completely and have been pretty unfair to legacy Granicus employees on the whole. There's no HR personnel in the Denver office at all. No one to talk to if you have a problem.

Pros

The clients are great and the work they do is important. If you can focus on that and the excellent people you work with you will be happy.

Cons

There was a recent merger so it is operating as a new organization with new leadership, processes and the pains that go with it. Communication has been lacking and current leadership is very insulated.

Pros

I have endless opportunities to have my voice heard. The work I do means something more to me than just filling out a time sheet. I get to make an impact for huge government agencies. I get to provide a level of excellence where "just good enough" would otherwise probably be good enough. We get great benefits and are encouraged to make our non-work life a top priority. I have grown professionally and have opportunities to grow further. "It is what you make of it" definitely applies to this company.

Cons

This is a product-centric company, and as I am a service-centric employee, things don't always align for me here. The company is also currently merging with other companies, and may do more merging in the future, so I have to be flexible and adjust often. I get pulled in several different directions, which can be both good and not good. Overall the culture feels healthy, but unchecked and prone to having the loudest voices be the only voices heard.
