The company is growing fast and experiencing growing pains.
On the compensation side, the company pays fairly.
The drawback is: If you want the bonus expect to put in crazy hours. Unfortunately, bonus is a function of time that you put in, not the quality of your work or what you get done.
At other companies, if you continually put 80 hour weeks, you are seen as ineffective, incapable of leading change and/or delegating. At Inovalon, the more hours you put in, the more you are seen as committed.
Too many front line employees complain about not being challenged and too many managers complain of doing too much work. A true leader builds a solid team and delegates meaningful responsibilities to the team. In short, Inovalon needs more true leaders.
Leadership is thin at the VP and Sr. Director ranks (a few are good, but most are not seasoned and are clueless about true leadership). The company recognizes this and is developing programs to strengthen the middle management and upper management levels.
Many people at the lower ranks get thrown into a "Set-up to fail" situation. If you are savvy and know how to highlight management proactively (or worse offload the luggage to someone else) then you should be fine.
Unfortunately, politics and covering-your-ass symptoms are rampant in the company. But this exists in every company.
Turn-over is high (unless the company keeps you with an H1b visa).
