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

1. Help develop an amazing product that has/will disrupt Govtech. 2. Meet and work alongside extremely talented people. 3. Participate in something great, watch people and processes grow knowing that you directly contributed to the success.

Cons

1. Company values were not practiced well. The values that attracted many great people in the first place were an illusion compared to actual practices. 2. HR nonexistent so no recourse for employees if they experience issues with management. 3. Poor metrics contributed to high turnover (over 15-20%) and the customer success team functioned for extended periods without clear measures for success. Individuals would get evaluated based on opinions instead of numbers which fostered an environment of blame.
