Pros

Your team members - Whereoware is filled with brilliantly talented people who are bursting with innovation and ideas Client work - The client work can be fun and challenging

Cons

Time tracking - while time tracking at agencies is pretty common, this takes it to a new level. You are required to track down to the 15 minutes, are required to be a certain percentage billable, and get in trouble if you don't meet these standards. The sales and executive team consistently under scope projects, which leads to minimal time for PM's to actually achieve base level projects but also sets it up for the executive team to try to gouge their clients for all their worth. They'd rather have robots than free-thinking employees. You will only succeed at Whereoware do exactly what the higher ups want you to do, even if it's not in the best interest of your clients. If you come up with innovative ideas they will most likely be shot down (not that you have time to be innovative because again under-scoped projects and mandate of billable time)

Pros

Collaborative, team-like working environment. Generous benefits, management is transparent and supportive.

Cons

Like any agency, there is a focus on how much time you put in on client work - pressure to be billable.

Pros

Whereoware has a diverse client base, giving team members the opportunity to work on very different types of accounts and industries. The work is challenging and fast-paced. Peers are smart, innovative, and collaborative. They've recently invested in more senior positions, bringing in very experienced talent to lead the different teams and provide better team management. As a working mother with small children, I could not be more complimentary of how Whereoware handled the COVID-driven shift to full-time work from home. When kids appear in the back of Zoom videos, no one bats an eye. I've never felt uncomfortable taking time off or flexing my schedule to support child-related needs. Work is expected to get completed and communication lines remain open, but Whereoware truly embodies great work/life balance.

Cons

Clients can be challenging, and the level of technical complexity of many projects means team members must be very precise, organized, and executing at the highest quality level. For some, this can be stressful, but many of us flourish in the fast-paced environment.
