OpenGov reviews

1) The mission is very clearly the top priority. It is really easy to see the passion some of my coworkers have for making difference in government financial analysis. 2) Using cutting edge technology such as Ruby on Rails, React (all ES6), express, webpack, babel, Redux and Postgres. 3) The people here have that rare combination of brilliance and approachability. Regular brown bags, design reviews, retros. Sasha, and the CEO is active with all employees. 4) This is a fast-paced environment where everyone has a great deal of responsibility and impact on the product. 5) Comp and benefits are really good. Everyone gets equity. Free purple tie laundry, lunch/dinner, apartment allowance if you live within 4 miles of the office and a decent gym discount. 6) Everyone is always smiling and very friendly. Friday happy hours at the local bar are great fun

OpenGov is a terrific company which is purposefully and aggressively seeking to modernize one of the most outdated industries in our country, our nations governments. This is no easy feat, and we are fighting against decades of backwards practices, and archaic attitudes. We are blessed to have built one of the best leadership teams and board of directors in the valley. I feel fortunate every day to work and learn with our leaders and my colleagues throughout the organization. Our CEO, Zac Bookman, is a dedicated and charismatic tier-one leader, who is committed to constant improvement. This attitude has a positive impact on the entire company. He, in addition to our important mission, is one of the primary reasons why both John Chambers and Marc Andreessen have funded the company and sit on our board. OpenGov is for the A-Team only. If you are not an A-Team player, you will likely not last here long. If you are the type of person who is excited to work with the best, and you want to contribute to our society while building a great company, I strongly encourage you to apply. Extremely hard and smart work is expected, and this is why we will be successful. Good ideas are acknowledged, regardless of seniority, and this holds true even as we have doubled in size over the last year and a half. Additionally, we have built a well rounded and experienced executive staff in sales, engineering, and customer success over the last year, while at the same time re-organizing and leveling-up our marketing team. Specifically, our sales organization leadership is high-caliber, which enables tremendous opportunity for both personal and professional growth as a result of our process and their mentorship. Team mentality and shared purpose and vision are key themes, and the work environment is collaborative, not competitive, even in the sales department. We have built a team of creative, intelligent and driven professionals, and as a result, working at OpenGov is a lot of fun. The quality of our product improves with every sprint, and I have no doubt that we will continue to grow at a rapid pace, and change our nation for the better.
