Pros

I've come from much larger companies in the past where your role was very finite and you felt like just another cog in the wheel. This is absolutely not the case here. There is plenty of opportunity to add value not just for the role you were hired into but in other areas of the business as well.

Cons

If you need to be given constant direction everyday, this may not be the place for you. There is a lot of freedom. With that comes some ambiguity to your day. A successful employee must be able to prioritize responsibilities and own their day.

Pros

Work from home Remote work was nice and no meeting mondays (when followed) was nice.

Cons

Racist, Misogynistic, white dominated boys club leadership team. Absolutely the worst place to work if you are a person of color, more specifically a woman of color.

Pros

I've been with OpenSesame for almost 5 years, and it is a great company to work for if you enjoy working hard and like helping customers solve problems. Everyone is encouraged and empowered to take ownership of your responsibilities and to increase and improve upon the impact of your role each and every day. Our goal every day is to help our customers and their employees be better through training. Leadership is incredibly transparent, and encourages opportunities for growth and internal hires. We have a strong (and ever growing) onboarding process, and a generous Professional Development benefit for all employees. I was promoted from within and have seen many other employees (both on my team on from other teams) experience the same. My favorites things about it, are the team (solid teammates) and our company culture. Everyone is incredibly hardworking and helpful. The culture supports openness - we have full team meetings every Friday to discuss things like diversity, town hall/retrospective of current happenings, getting to know our new hires, and to review OKR progress from each team.

Cons

Our open office can be challenging and distracting at time. We also operate pretty lean, which can be challenging at times to prioritize workload while providing the quality of work that I expect of myself.
