Pros

Mission driven company, unlimited PTO (see below), kickoff events

Cons

Do not make the same mistake I did. So many red flags that I chose to ignore. Work life balance is not existent, they make it very clear to the whole company this is not a 9-5 job. The products are just decent at best and the only market is state and local government. Not a hot place to be right now. The people are the absolute worst I’ve ever encountered in my career. From my direct manager, to my peers, to leadership, I’ve never witnessed such poor treatment of employees. Very cliquey among the departments. unlimited PTO but I was denied 4 times in less than a year period. If you value your humanity and really want to work at a place that values you as a person, Opengov is NOT for you. Don’t work here, let alone apply. A huge waste of time and effort.

OpenGov Response

We’re sorry to hear this was your experience, as it doesn’t reflect the culture we’re building at OpenGov or the feedback we hear from most employees, many of whom cite their colleagues as a highlight. We take concerns about balance, leadership, and support seriously. That said, we firmly believe state and local government is a hot space to be in! It’s the core of our democracy, and we’re proud to be driving innovation where it matters most.
