Pros

Novus gives incredible exposure to a very desirable and interesting industry. It is an expanding business that has many elements and opportunities to help advance careers and explore different avenues of interest. The company still has a startup culture and mentality; it will allow you to choose the path you want to create. The people are extremely talented and incredible to work with. It is a young company with employees that are driven to succeed and a management that empowers their employees. It is a great place to work.

Cons

The company recently went to a more flat corporate structure. We have been producing more and at a faster rate. The only issue with the flat structure is there is not a clear plan to help with employees that want to move laterally in the company. Also, some teams are operating very lean which can make it difficult to move to a different area of the business.

Pros

Novus really cares about its people. It takes seriously what many other firms fail to understand as crucial aspects to employees' long-term happiness - effective recruiting, organized onboarding, employee engagement, consistent agreement on job responsibilities and expectations, etc. Props to the leadership team for taking management so seriously. I only see improvement on these fronts in the future. The environment is fast-paced and provides an invaluable opportunity for anyone looking to wear various hats and learn within a high-growth environment. The exposure I got to the various functions of someone in my role (and other roles) was priceless. People are dedicated, hardworking, passionate about what they're building and have a great sense of humor. The culture is collaborative, and leadership is very conscious about providing transparency around business decisions, team structures and processes. The benefits package is solid. In-house perks include happy hours, a newly built pantry filled with snacks and quarterly firm-wide catering.

Cons

The hours can be long. But the upside is that this means employees often hang out with each other, which contributes to the tightly-knit culture. Novus isn't for those who are looking to have a routine job with a narrowly-defined and unchanging set of responsibilities. It's a place for those who seek responsibility and accountability, who are adaptive and want to be key players on a small, nimble, hardworking and high-performing team. Personalities can be pushy and loud. The open office layout may be overwhelming for someone who's used to working solo behind closed doors.
