Pros

Beautiful work space, all you can eat snacks, catered lunch and dinner 5 days a week, laundry service, gym/housing stipend, extremely relevant product.

Cons

Where to start... Taking time off is frowned upon and the vacation policy is archaic. Work life balance is necessary for employee retention. Executive team is a swinging door with employee tenure lasting only 6-9 months. CEO is a difficult personality to say the least. Career growth is often stunted by upper management. Do not inquire about raises or promotions, the answer is no. They look to bring in external talent at lower than average salary.

Thank you for your feedback - we're working hard to address it! In 2018, we implemented an unlimited vacation policy, and made career development a key focus area for the company. With that said, we're always open to more input, and I'd love to hear from you with more details. Please email me at Shara.seligman@opengov.com if you're open to discussing further.

Pros

OpenGov's mission draws people who are both very talented and awesome human beings. The company has strong leadership and rewards results with tremendous growth opportunity.

Cons

The fast pacing is not for everyone and OpenGov can become a very high pressure environment depending on situation.
