Pros

Amazing culture, inviting staff, inspiring campus in the heart of Downtown Portland, Oregon. Should be a must-apply for all new college grads looking to get into tech and/or tech sales.

Cons

Parking availability, only put this because something was required to post.

Pros

- Best company I ever worked for (may be the best company I ever work for) - Great people. Smart, dedicated Engineering team - Taking relatively good care of employees (benefits, etc.) - Great downtown office location

Cons

- Lost its startup appeal; processes are now often elevated above results. This is probably the right thing for the clientele and the direction, it may just not be right for everyone (it wasn't for me, anymore, but if you come from a larger company, you will feel the opposite) - Lack of technical leadership, priorities are set by Sales and Marketing instead, glossing over the technical basics - Collaborative, consensus culture makes it hard to be decisive - The ball is dropped in bringing the transparency preachings into practice

Thank you for the review. I'm glad to hear that your time at Jama was so positive overall and I truly hope that the experiences you had here have set you up to be a key contributor at your current and future places of work. As we continue to grow, I will be sure to make sure our transparency is genuine and that our processes are driving results, versus getting in the way - across all departments and teams.

Pros

The people here are top notch, working hard to help Jama succeed. The company is growing, and the leaders work hard to keep a good, transparent culture as that happens.

Cons

Growth is always hard, and keeping different departments aligned while it happens is a challenge. Sometimes, we lose momentum in the process, and it can be disheartening when you want to be moving.
