      Pros

      ZenPayroll is the first company that I have worked for that is 100% true to it's core values. The culture and environment here have really worked to create some awesome bonds between employees and I've never experienced this at any company before. This is an extremely fast growing start up with a product that solves a real business in the SMB sector. It is a very exciting time to work for this company! As it is a start up, don't expect to work a 9-5 schedule as hours tend to be longer, but the company and mission you're pushing make it all worth it! Great benefits as well!

      Cons

      None I can think of aside from typical growing pains!

      Dream job at a truly special startup

      Pros

      The work is challenging and meaningful - we're trying to fix a broken industry. The founders, who are experienced and committed to upholding a set of shared values, have assembled a team that's talented, curious, supportive, and diverse. I feel empowered as an owner in the company and appreciated for my contributions.

      Cons

      Growing pains! In order to achieve our ambitious goals we'll need to hire more quickly and find the right people for critical positions. That's true of all startups though. One thing to note about ZenPayroll in particular: the work is very intense at times, and that can mean giving a lot of yourself and putting in long hours. Our strong sense of mission, comfortable office environment, and awesome teammates make it all worthwhile though.

      Pros

      The culture, culture, culture! The founders here actually care about employees and aren't just giving lip service when they talk about building a culture of teamwork, family and values. It's the best place that I've ever worked and I worked for a company that consistently shows up on several "Best Places to Work" lists. The benefits are great. From one-year employment anniversary round trip tickets anywhere in the world, to company trips and housing/gym stipends, to regular health benefits. The founders are constantly adding new benefits and evolving old ones. The people are rockstars. Everyone you will work with on the team is brilliant and eclectic. There are absolutely no egos here at all! At times you'll find yourself hanging out in our incredible "home office" workspace because you enjoy the company (no pun intended).

      Cons

      ...None! Seriously, there are no cons. Nothing is perfect, but this company is about as close as it can get to being perfect. Yes, we work a lot, but that's because we care about what we do. We're on a mission!
