Pros

We're a small and extremely lean team that produces a fin-tech product that helps people make BIG financial decisions, working here means you get to work on a product that makes a difference! We're giving people advice on things like buying a house and saving up for retirement through our patent-pending technology. It's pretty cool to work at a company that has some patents in the works. A few of the other pros include: Surrounded by intelligent people Everyone works really hard Small teams means more opportunity for growth and an ability to take ownership of projects Catered lunch 3x a week Health and dental insurance 401k Weekly happy hours Monthly team-wide social outings (bowling, karaoke, but you're not forced to sing!, St. Patty's Day is a big deal)

Cons

While SmartAsset is 4 years old, the company still feels very much like a startup, which means wearing multiple hats. Pro for some; con for others... The company has grown very fast in a short amount of time, and the communication across teams is catching up. A lot is expected of employees. It can be intense at times, but name a workplace that is not!

Pros

Great product that helps the user understand their financial health, surrounded by expert content. I enjoy coming to work everyday as I feel that I truly contribute the success of the company. As a startup we are constantly learning and pivoting which makes SmartAsset a fun and fast paced environment. Like most companies, the employees play a huge role in success as well as the culture...and we've got a great group of smart, enthusiastic folks. We're in a hyper growth phase which is exciting to be a part of this company as the sky is the limit.

Cons

As a startup we have experienced some growing pains. We tend to move very quickly, more than any other company that I've ever worked for in the digital space.

Pros

Free lunches 3x a week 3 Weeks+ Vacation time Happy Hours Great Team of people, very smart people to work with.

Cons

In the hiring process they claim to offer 'Competitive salaries' but that is far from true. Long hours and no work/life balance. Currently there are two CEOs with conflicting messages . The main CEO sets goals that change so frequently that trying to hit a goal is nearly impossible, it's like a moving target. Management is also very disorganized, there isn't enough structure or guidance, communication is extremely poor, and there isn't any real trust between the managers and the employees. After delegating a task or project to an employee they refuse to give up control which makes it hard for one to perform.
