Pros
I’ve worked at Origami for just under two years and I’ve been pleased with my experience so far. This company has its crap like any company but overall, the good outweighs the bad (and I assure you I’m not someone who drinks the kool-aid). Pros are: -Above market salary -Annual bonus -Flexible WFH -Flexible PTO -Choice of MAC or PC -If you want to build a career, there’s space to do so -Annual Colleague Conference Reviews may mention the billable hours target as a con but it’s a very standard practice in these types of jobs and it’s not an unreasonable target. I’ve never had an issue taking time off work and I still hit my target last year… AND I have work-life balance soooo… those folks may just need to be involved in more work. -The Delivery Excellence practice (PMO) has the best management and leadership.
Cons
Some of the biggest cons I see are: -outdated approach to delivering software projects (waterfall) that oftentimes results in missed timelines and customer concessions. The amount of time I spend looking at a project plan to update dates (that inevitably get moved every week) is insane. And then I have to bother my team members throughout the week to do the same. It’s so so so so inefficient. It’s easily my absolute least favorite and most annoying thing about my job. PLEASE make it stop. -having under-qualified Origami colleagues on projects that make work more difficult than it needs to be and also (more oftentimes than not) having under-qualified offshore resources on your project that make work waaayyy more difficult and frustrating than it needs to be. A lot of our concessions could be avoided in my opinion if we staffed projects properly with skilled people. -the software looks “old”/ dated but I hear that’s something the company will be investing in to improve - Racial/ethnic diversity in management and leadership. The only real “diversity” in management or leadership is white women. -You can oftentimes tell who has been at Origami for 4+ years based on how they respond to new ideas or change…. Not ALWAYS… but oftentimes you can.

Pros
The pros of this job are minimal. Heading into my experience at origami they promised all Bdrs hit their numbers. In my tenure there that was not true at all. Only positive I had was working with my BDR colleagues
Cons
Upper management. Director of Bus Dev only is concerned about numbers and not the good of the reps. BDRs were once called “overhead costs” in a meeting by a higher up. Minimal opportunities for career growth as well.
