Pros

Work is exciting and challenging. Lunch provided on Mondays and Fridays

Cons

Nothing really comes to mind, as with any rapidly growing company there are growing pains and internal debates on how to organize the business.

Pros

Applying to KeepTruckin was one of the best things I did for my career. The company open door policy and rapid growth has allowed me to get heard and grow my career at a faster rate. I cannot stress enough the importance of working for a company with good culture. KeepTruckin has it. It just makes coming to work easy.

Cons

Overall I don't see any major cons. In my tenure, I have seen a few different organizational structures, but that is pretty typical for a rapidly growing company.

Pros

- People & Culture: We set a high bar for hiring. Not only do we want smart/hard-working team members, but we want folks that are low-ego and easy to work with. It's a breath of fresh air. - Leadership: Smart, metrics driven, etc... typical for startups, but two things set them apart - 1. A strong vision for where we're headed and 2. They're humble and open to feedback, which trickles down to the rest of the company - Opportunity: We're not just about compliance anymore and the direction we're headed is extremely exciting. This means lots of growth opportunities within.

Cons

Growing too quickly has some downsides. The good news is that we're shoring up those gaps so that we can continue to grow at a rapid pace.
