Declining rapidly

Pros

Laid back atmosphere, room for growth, some positions have competitive wages for the area based on education/experience. If you are someone who can take initiative, approach new things with an open mind, work well with difficult personalities, take constant changes in direction with stride, and be committed to educating yourself and improving the way things are done, you will go far.

Cons

The company is growing at a rate that is not being handled well, causing too much chaos. Original values have been debased into things that are simply recited to new hires or repeated over and over until they lose their original meaning. There used to be a sense of ownership for what JAMF was. We were proud of what we were doing and took pride in working hard towards improvement. There was an implied trust between everyone, which worked when JAMF was smaller because in general, the people who were hired back then were 5 star employees. It used to be practice to hire "good people" because you can train good people to have technical knowledge. You can't train "bad people who happen to have a lot of technical knowledge" to be "good people". Everyone was expected to be capable of learning independently, to make things easier on others (not just yourself), to help out struggling team mates, and to work towards self improvement, improving the product, and improving the experience of the customer. Because the company is growing so fast and dynamically changing, the bar appears to have been lowered for new employees and elevated for the amount of work that is expected to be completed. People now blame others for things not being "better" or "easier". Instead of taking a bit of time to learn things and understand problems to work together and organize solutions, people make split decisions, cut corners, or find other people to take things off their plate. Silos have been created and management isn't ever on the same page. Priorities change rapidly. The solution is having a ton of meetings that no one can attend because everyone is in a constant state of confusion, frustration, and burnout trying to get the "real" work done.

Pros

JAMF is growing at a rate that has provided constant opportunities for those that are open to working hard and being uncomfortable as they pioneer new positions and roles. Pay is competitive, benefits are excellent. Good blend of internal promotions and outside experience on senior management team.

Cons

Pace is fast. Not everyone is comfortable working in an environment that is evolving this fast. Growth creates big workloads until hiring can catch up in some areas. These are short-term growing pains caused by exciting growth and expansion.

Pros

Pay is great Flexible schedule for work/life balance Awesome work environment with great people to work with Centrally located to a lot of fun places and bars Unlimited opportunities to learn and grow

Cons

Right out of the gate, you are expected to be at full speed with anything and everything that get's put on your plate. Being downtown Minneapolis, parking is always difficult...however that doesn't directly affect the work place or the job itself.
