Best Company I’ve Worked For

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Company culture is empowering. Fast growing company with lots of opportunity. Leadership really seeks to understand. Pay is above average. Benefits are great. Team atmosphere regarding most things. You get to work with creative minds that challenge you to be better.

Cons

It is a fast moving company so for some people working hard, taking responsibility for their actions and being able to pivot and make decisions on their own is difficult. It’s worth it, but you have to be self motivated to want success, that isn’t a con exactly, but a transparent comment for anyone on the fence about it.
